Juneteenth: Faith and Freedom is an unscripted documentary that invites viewers into the story of Juneteenth - the holiday recognizing the end of legalized slavery in Texas - through the eyes of a Black man learning about the holiday from the direct descendants of those liberated. The journey starts in Galveston, where the liberation was first announced, to Houston the site of Freedmen's Town, and heads to Dallas from there speaking to historians, artists, community organizers, and leaders of the Black Church. The story serves as a parable that offers hope and the insight that faith can be the greatest weapon against injustice.
