Juneteenth has been
celebrated in Anchorage, Alaska for 30+ years and this year, the annual banquet
will be held on June 12. Other events include a basketball tournament, the first
annual Hip Hop Night, the Miss Juneteenth Pageant and a Gospel Day. Juneteenth
Alaska provides top-notch knowledge to the communities in Alaska about black
history and famous African Americans both in our past and now. The African
American Historical Society of Alaska (A.A.H.S.A.) hosts the annual Juneteenth
celebration in Anchorage Alaska. The vision of the African American Historical
Society of Alaska is to promote and preserve the historical recognition and
culture of African Americans in Alaska. We endeavor to educate the general
public about accomplishments of African Americans through celebrations;
establishment of African American cultural centers and museums; and researching
African American history in Alaska and beyond. |
