THE COMMITTEE
Leslie Settle, Chair
The Juneteenth planning committee is comprised of UCR BFASA's staff, working on a volunteer, non-paid basis to ensure the recognition, education and liberation of Juneteenth on the campus of UC Riverside. All speakers, panelist, and artist have donated time and talents to make this event a success. Please consider donating to BFASA (notating Juneteenth) to help thank our guest speakers, panelists and artists. We could not make this happen without their generous support.
