ATLANTA, June 17, 2022 /Christian Newswire/ -- The following is submitted by evangelist Alveda King, she is available for comment:

As we celebrate both Juneteenth and Father's Day this week, let’s also remember in prayer the US SUPREME COURT. As the Supreme Court justices appointed by President Trump join in the critical Dobbs decision -- may the overturning of Roe v. Wade help “we the people” on the state level grow to ensure that every unborn baby has the civil right to LIFE. Human dignity begins in the womb! After all, how can the Dream survive if we murder our children? 

This week, before returning to Atlanta, I’ve celebrated Juneteenth and Father's Day in DC with my AFPI colleague Jack Brewer, Fatherhood and Second Chances (Jack Brewer Op-Ed - Washington Times) and in Nashville at  ROAD TO MAJORITY with my friend President Donald J. Trump and the AFPI family.


As the niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., I had the honor of growing up in a family with a vibrant history of defending civil rights. As we all know, my uncle played a key role in ensuring equal rights for all of God’s children — no matter their skin tone. Our “King Family Legacy” is founded in God’s Word; with love for human dignity for the one blood/one human race of Acts 17:26. JUNETEENTH and FATHERS DAY is a great season to remember THE AMERICAN DREAM.


“President Biden signed the JUNETEENTH bill to make Juneteenth a national holiday, but Dr. Alveda King says it was President Trump who put Juneteenth ‘on the map.” Steve Strang, CHARISMA MAGAZINE

Juneteenth was first celebrated in 1865, two years after another Republican, President Abraham Lincoln, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Because there were no cell phones or even telephones, news travelled slowly, and black people in Texas didn’t realize they were free until June 19th, 1865.

When President Trump was still in office, he began to bring African Americans to the White House to talk about things that were important to us. And at the top of our list was Juneteenth. President Trump listened to the black leaders. He got the proverbial ball rolling, and Congress began to formulate the bill while he was still in office.

At any rate, Juneteenth is now a national holiday. Father's Day is in the public eye with new fatherhood legislation in Florida, and more awareness on the national scene.

Every step towards unity for the one blood human race, from the womb to the tomb, brings light in the present darkness. Let us pray and ask God to bless America. Have a blessed weekend.
