Event Details

PPL invites you to our screening of Juneteenth: Faith & Freedom as part of a series of events sponsored by the Permanent Commission to commemorate Juneteenth in 2025.

About the film:

In the film, a Black American is troubled by the legacy of American slavery and the misuse of Christianity to justify it. He travels throughout Texas discovering how the Juneteenth reveals faith and a fight for freedom in an unjust society. 

Join us in viewing this powerful documentary followed by a discussion.

Continue the commemoration on Sunday, June 22 with Juneteenth Portland at Ancestral Echoes: Walking the Water, Singing the Land.
