Today, we honour the strength, resistance, and legacy of those who fought for freedom, and those who continue the struggle for justice, healing, and liberation.
The words in today’s post are a powerful reminder: freedom is not a fixed point in history, it’s a living, ongoing pursuit. Emancipation Day is not only a time to remember the past, but also to confront the lasting impacts of slavery, colonization, and systemic racism.
At NECHC, we recognize that this work continues in our communities and within our systems, including health care. We remain committed to advancing equity, honouring lived experience, and walking alongside those leading the path forward.
We remember. We reflect. We rise.
