Salem’s Riverfront Park was filled laughter, dancing and singing June 19 at a community event organized by the Salem-Keizer chapter of the NAACP to celebrate Juneteenth. It was on this day, June 19, 1865, enslaved African-Americans in Texas were told they were free. InSight OnSite captures the sights, sounds and flavors of the day with perspectives from organizers who focus on what the future holds and the optimism it brings.
