Juneteenth and Father's Day: A Weekend to Celebrate!

This past weekend was one for honoring the men in our lives, particularly those who helped make our very existence possible. The courage and perseverance of our ancestors who fought for our rights, stood up to injustice, and worked tirelessly for our betterment is vividly portrayed in the following short biographies of some lesser-known but outstanding St. Louisans. We wrote recently about Archer Alexander and John Berry Meachum; if you missed that post, you can find it here. And now we hope you enjoy learning about the contributions of some additional important men of color.
