A POWERFUL STATEMENT ...

There was a lot of dancing, singing and story-telling in Guinda recently as people of all races gathered for the 10th annual Multi-Cultural Heritage and Black History Celebration. But, perhaps, the most important part of the event stood silently near the stage of the Guinda Grange Hall. It was a statement written in black letters on white background, set on an easel. Written on 1 Jan 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation was the executive order issued by President Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War. It proclaimed the immediate freedom of 3.1 million of the nation's four million slaves.
