Digital Transformers Special: Honoring Juneteenth and Abolishing Modern Slavery

On June 19, 1865, Major General Gordon Granger arrived at the 1861 Customs House in Galveston, TX as part of his tour to command troops sent to enforce the emancipation of enslaved peoples in the United States. Now, that same courthouse is set to continue the charge toward freedom for all. In this episode, join Kevin L. Jackson and Scott as they discuss plans for the new June Nineteenth Museum, dedicated to honoring this important moment in history and ending modern slavery and human trafficking, with former Galveston Assistant City Manager Douglas Matthews and Hope4Justice CEO Tim Nelson.
