Why Juneteenth Still Matters in 2025!

Imagine a world where history is a tapestry of untold stories, woven with the threads of courage, resilience, and truth. In the latest episode of Thrive by the Rising Muse, hosts Naty and Veda explore the significance of teaching real history. This journey not only honors the past but also shapes a more inclusive future.

“Juneteenth isn’t just about a moment in time. It’s about people known and unknown,” says Naty in the episode. The stories of Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, and Sojourner Truth are more than historical footnotes; they are powerful narratives that challenge us to see beyond the surface. By teaching real history, we ensure that these voices are heard, their struggles acknowledged, and their legacies preserved.

Healing Through Understanding: “Freedom came, but the trauma didn’t magically disappear,” Veda reminds us during the discussion. The scars of the past linger, and understanding history is a step towards healing. By acknowledging the pain and resilience of those who came before us, we create a space for empathy and growth. Teaching real history is not just about facts; it’s about fostering a deeper connection to our shared humanity.

“Teach your children about history. Real history,” urges Naty. In a world where misinformation can spread like wildfire, the responsibility to educate the next generation is more crucial than ever. By embracing the full spectrum of history, we empower young minds to think critically, challenge biases, and build a future rooted in equality and understanding.

As we reflect on the stories shared in this episode, let us commit to teaching real history with integrity and passion. By doing so, we honor the heroes who paved the way and inspire future generations to continue the fight for justice and unity.
