The 14th Annual Juneteenth NY Celebration 2023 ‘Kaleidoscope of Black Culture’ Returns to Brooklyn,...
NEW YORK, February 23, 2023 (Newswire.com) - The 14th Annual Juneteenth NY Celebration - one of New York City's premier and largest annual events commemorating a now federally-recognized holiday - returns for an exciting three-day celebration, kicking off virtual and in-person on Friday, June 16, through June 18 from the epicenter of Black culture and community in Brooklyn, NY.
The Juneteenth NY Celebration was created to empower the Black community as well as advance the economic and cultural arts in underserved areas to champion small, Black-owned businesses. By showcasing Black creativity, ingenuity, and innovations, the Juneteenth NY Celebration's array of events push forward a positive and present-day Black history narrative. With this year's theme "Kaleidoscope of Black Culture", the weekend will feature the best in Black culture and community with live performances, exhibitions, authentic local cuisine, wellness and other family fun activities, including The Celebration of Black Kings Awards Dinner and Reception and the highly anticipated Juneteenth NYC Parade. Over the past 14 years, Juneteenth NY has grown and expanded exponentially from a local gathering to a nationally recognized event with this year's attendees expected to reach over 37,000+.
In honor of Black History Month and celebrating freedoms for all worldwide, the Juneteenth holiday promotes unity and builds self-esteem through reflection, education, and acknowledgment of African-American achievements. In 2021, historic and bipartisan legislation passed establishing Juneteenth as the newest Federal holiday, showcasing the power and progress of the work that continues to move African American history forward. Juneteenth NY Celebration encourages people of all races, nationalities, and ethnicities to join together to support and participate in Juneteenth celebrations locally and across the country - a true testament of resilience and humanity.
"We are beyond excited to bring the Juneteenth NY Celebration back bigger and better than ever in its 14th year as New York's premier event for the city to come together and celebrate our rich Black history that is embedded in the very fabric of this country. We are proud to continue the Juneteenth NY tradition and celebration as the largest gathering of Black people dedicated to elevating one another, providing a space for creativity, culture, and Black excellence," said Juneteenth NY's pioneer and visionary CEO/Founder, Athenia Rodney. "Recently we have witnessed an attack on Black history and African-American studies, but with events like Juneteenth NY Celebration, we can educate, uplift, and enlighten people everywhere and truly champion change by bringing Black history past, present and future to the forefront. Juneteenth NY is a safe space for our community, shifting the narrative and creating change that will have a lasting generational impact nationally and globally."
"WABC is a proud media sponsor of the Juneteenth NY Celebration, which recognizes the contributions of African-Americans and the power and strength of the human spirit," said Marilu Galvez, President and GM of WABC-TV. The WABC station-wide media partnership includes Juneteenth NY coverage on linear, digital, and social platforms.
The 14th Annual Juneteenth NY Celebration will be held (rain or shine). All events with the exception of The Celebration of Black Kings Awards Dinner and Reception are free and open to the public. Registration is encouraged. To learn more, please visit https://www.juneteenthny.com/.

About Juneteenth
Juneteenth - also known as "Juneteenth Independence Day" or "Freedom Day" - is a holiday that commemorates the June 19, 1865 announcement of the abolition of slavery in Galveston, Texas, and, more generally, the emancipation of African-American slaves throughout the Confederate South. The state official celebration is generally celebrated on June 19th and is now recognized as a national holiday. Juneteenth symbolically serves as a reference point from which to measure and appreciate the progress and contributions made by African-Americans to society.
About Juneteenth NY Celebration
Now in its 14th year, the Juneteenth NY Celebration is one of the longest-running events commemorating Juneteenth and the preeminent celebration of the holiday in the Tri-State area. Located in Brooklyn, the first Juneteenth NY Celebration was held in East New York and hosted by George Walker Jr. in 2009 with Umoja Events entrusted to carry on the Celebration in 2011. The Celebration was designed to celebrate and empower the Black community. Each year features a theme that seeks to educate the Black community on its history while also changing the narrative of the devastating impact of slavery.

HTVRONT Auto Heat Press Earns Kickstarter ‘Project We Love’ Badge
SACRAMENTO, Calif., February 22, 2023 (Newswire.com) - HTVRONT, an experienced and innovative brand, completed its first crowdfunding campaign with the most advanced household Heat Press Machine on Kickstarter, the world's biggest online funding platform, in August 2022, and earned the "'Project We Love'" badge due to the incredible raising speed and amount of funding.
This event was from July 6, 2022, to Aug. 20, 2022, a sum of 45 days. Thanks to its previous successful advertisement and propaganda online, the HTVRONT Auto Heat Press achieved full funding within only ten minutes and reached more than 700% of funds in two days, hitting the top several in Kickstarter rank.
This advanced gadget features an intelligent lifting structure, which can exert a proper force automatically on a variety of materials with thicknesses up to 2.5mm, and seven fast ironing modes magnifying productivity, introducing a new era of household crafting machines. Additionally, its 2x faster heating speed than other counterparts makes HTVRONT Auto Heat Press a must-have for many small businesses.
Following the huge success on Kickstarter, the HTVRONT Auto Heat Press has now entered the vision of more craft enthusiasts. In this campaign, HTVRONT secured around 5,000 supporters for itself and earned 85% praise from the users, who think that the heat press machine is easy to assemble and use with really fast and even heat distribution.
One of the 5-star users on Amazon commented: "Purchased this for my wife and daughter to use with their crafts. Easy to set up as there wasn't anything I needed to do but remove the unit from the well-packaged box. Heats up fast and gives great results without having to manually open and close the lid. The sliding tray is a huge help in loading and unloading projects. The controls are fairly straightforward as well. I would recommend this unit to other beginners as it takes a lot of the guesswork out."
Most customers would like to praise the smart, easy device for its drawer design. One wrote: "With the drawer, it's also safe to use and practically eliminates the chance of accidental burns," implicating the high security that HTVRONT had taken into account.
As the New Year comes by, the second HTVRONT Fans Carnival, its biggest anniversary sale online, will soon start from April 6 to 12, 2023. In addition, HTVRONT is about to meet its supporters offline in Charlotte, US, on April 27, 2023. This local event will be a chance to demonstrate the whole new heat press machine for cups and mugs and make a debut.

Couple Married Almost 40 Years, Who Haven’t Argued in 35 Years, Release TED Talk...
WASHINGTON, February 21, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Dr. Willie Jolley is a well-known motivational/inspirational speaker, best-selling author and syndicated radio host. Dee Taylor-Jolley is a former communications coach. They have been married for almost 40 years and have not had an argument in 35 years. Their new TED Talk is being heralded as a "must-see" message for all married couples and singles who aspire to get married.
After a huge argument about Chinese food 35 years ago, the Jolleys realized that something had to change if their marriage was going to survive.
They developed some rules of engagement on how to disagree without being disagreeable, and it transformed their marriage. They created the "4F Formula," the dynamic keys to having critical conversations in marriage. This process allows couples to work through problems without threats, yelling or arguing. It has helped thousands of couples around the world stop arguing.
Watch their Ted Talk video, "How to Never Argue in Marriage Again."
Marriage can be a challenge. Statistics show 50 percent of marriages in the United States end in divorce. The remainder of those couples are often miserable.
The Jolleys have helped couples around the world address those questions and improve their marriages. Their popular weekly online television program, "The Jolley Marriage Show," shares tips on how to develop loving relationships. Their advice also helps couples overcome challenges that develop from three main issues that break up relationships: sex, money, and communication.
The dynamic couple has shared tips from their Make Love, Make Money, Make It Last! book on The Today Show, Sirius XM, and many national broadcasts and popular publications. The book shares 10 secrets to a successful marriage that the authors claim actually work.
The Jolleys' book will help you, whether you are currently married or looking to get married. It can be found on www.JolleyMarriage.com and on all major retail websites, including Amazon. A free chapter of the book is available for download on The Jolleys' website.
The video can also be seen on their corporate website, www.WinWithWillie.com.
