A Living Legacy

JOIN THE JUNETEENTH MOVEMENT

On June 19, 1865, the enslaved people of Galveston, Texas, first learned of the Emancipation Proclamation, which declared them free citizens. This day marked the beginning of the annual commemorative celebrations that included sharing stories of black history, singing, dancing, and good food. Juneteenth celebrations have been occurring for decades across the nation. Communities have celebrated via week-long festivals, parades, and pageants to showcase our rich heritage and cultural awareness. 

The National Miss Juneteenth Scholarship Pageant Program is designed to encourage young African American women to embrace their diversity and culture while pursuing higher educational goals. This national platform aims to showcase the beauty, poise, and rich culture of African Americans that ultimately preserves, represents, and embodies what black excellence means today.

OUR MISSION

“Is to go Beyond! Beyond the standard beauty pageants to magnify & exemplify the Black Experience and our rich histories through cultural awareness, education, community service, mental wellness- (the greater sense of self), and to elevate urban youth in their pursuits of scholastic achievement on a national platform."

-MISS NATIONAL JUNETEENTH USA ORGANIZATION

OUR VISION

To revitalize African American youth in their quest to Black Excellence and to specifically focused on empowering and elevating urban youth through the historical contributions of the Black Experience that are intricately woven into Juneteenth and the nation's history.

I believe that the most important single thing, beyond discipline and creativity, is daring to DARE.
