Hey Geeksters! This week on Age of Geek, we dive into the rich history and cultural significance of Juneteenth.
Join Robert, Marlee, Steph, and our special guest, Jake Dietz, as we explore this pivotal moment in American history. Robert kicks things off with a compelling story about Juneteenth.

This marked the end of slavery in the Confederate states.
Robert also breaks down the Juneteenth flag for us. Ever wondered what the colors and symbols mean? Tune in to find out and gain a deeper appreciation for this symbol of freedom. The crew discusses various ways to celebrate Juneteenth. From parades and parties to more meaningful acts, they suggest making it a day of service.
