Tell us about your design My design pictures the Black Power Salute Fist, with a washed color palette of red, green and yellow, as these resemble the Pan-African flag. My design also includes breaking chains at the wrist of the fist, with the date 1865, when slavery officially ended in the United States. I wrote "history matters" underneath these chains because Juneteenth has only recently became an official holiday, yet it is an essential part of American history and everyone should be educated on it's significance, as many people still don't know the holiday's meaning.
