This year’s historic tour revealed how enslaved people, Civil War veterans, and their families shaped St. Paul and Minneapolis, turning a military outpost into a foundation for Black resilience. With Juneteenth marking the delayed freedom of Texas slaves and the 25th Infantry’s legacy, this isn’t just a holiday—it’s a living story of resistance, community, and the enduring power of remembering.
