Home Sweet Home...

I took this photo a while ago, but I wanted to show off my beloved cactus fountain—which now runs water!! It was broken for the longest time, and you wouldn't believe what I had to kill in the sewers to get it working again...

Anyway, the town just gets prettier and prettier each day, I think! Anyone wanna invest in a nice vacation home? 😊

The KCS Holiday Express idles at CP Greenville on a pristine November afternoon, awaiting the call to move to downtown for display later in the evening. The 2012 train shown here would go on to host 66,200 visitors in 22 communities and raise over $107,000 to purchase gift cards that were donated to the Salvation Army for children in need during the Christmas season.

Organizers for a Juneteenth celebration in Greenville, South Carolina, are receiving backlash on social media over marketing material for the event.

Juneteenth, marked on June 19th, celebrates the emancipation of the westernmost slaves in the U.S. It took Union troops until that date in 1865 to finally reach Texas and inform those there that enslaved Black people were free by executive decree.

Some people online are sharing photos of a promotional banner for the Juneteenth GVL event, skewering organizers for their use of white models.

QUESTION

Are photos of the Juneteenth GVL banners, with white models, real?

SOURCES

• Recent footage of downtown Greenville, SC, from NBC affiliate WYFF • Rueben Hays, Founder and Executive Director of Juneteenth GVL

ANSWER

TRUE

Yes, there are Juneteenth banners in downtown Greenville featuring white models. However, there are different versions of the banner around the area featuring models of other races.

WHAT WE FOUND

Footage of downtown Greenville from NBC affiliate WYFF shows several banners on light posts in the downtown area advertising the upcoming Juneteenth celebration.

The viral banner, featuring a white couple, is there, and there are other banners depicting people of different races, including one with a single Black woman and another one with an older Black couple.

The organization behind the Juneteenth materials told WYFF it was trying to portray how everyone is welcomed to join in Juneteenth celebrations and how everyone must come together to push any vision forward.

That said -- Hays is apologizing for the delivery of that message.

"We understand that it's a very sensitive subject, especially in the African American community," Hays said. "We failed at making sure that we completely centered African Americans at the center of our marketing, of all of our marketing."

In addition to apologizing, organizers said they plan to change the banners to feature the Juneteenth and Pan-African flags.
