WHITE RIVER JUNCTION — Vermont State Sen. Joe Major, D-Hartford, hugged the Rev. Leon Dunkley of the North Universalist Chapel Society in Woodstock, while welcoming him to the podium during a Juneteenth Celebration at Lyman Point Park on Saturday.
“Black history is American history,” Major said in his welcoming address. “It belongs in every classroom, every town and every heart in this country.”
Saturday’s event in White River Junction was coordinated by community members from Hartford, Lebanon and Bethel. In addition to the speakers, the event included free food, music and kids’ activities.
