The Caribbean American Society of New York (CASONY) and The National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) invite you to a jubilant Caribbean American Heritage Month and Juneteenth Celebration under the theme Building Together. This FREE event will take place on Friday, June 19, 2026 from 10 AM to 2 PM at Brooklyn Technical High School, 29 Fort Green Place in Brooklyn, New York.
βThis yearβs combined Caribbean Heritage Month and Juneteenth celebration will be a spectacular event which will recognize several distinguished African-Americans and Caribbean-Americans who have made significant contributions to our history, life and culture,β said CASONY president and founder, Horace Davis. βThe celebration will also feature poetry, music, dance, and other commemorative expressions.β
The honorees for this celebration are Julius Harvey, MD, son of the late Marcus Garvey; Patricia Chin, Founder of VP Records; Raymond Joseph, Former Haitian Ambassador to the U.S.; Kenneth P. Thompson, the first African-American District Attorney of Kings County; and Jeanine Ramirez, Brooklyn Tech alumna and award-winning journalist and media consultant.
Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery in the United States. It marks the day Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas to inform the last group of enslaved persons of their freedom, two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law on June 17, 2021.
National Caribbean American Heritage Month, now in its 20th year, is observed each June to celebrate the rich history, culture, and societal contributions of Caribbean immigrants and their descendants in the U.S. The presidential proclamation establishing the commemoration was signed on June 5, 2006 by President George W. Bush.
βBoth commemorative designations promote historical and cultural awareness and a commitment to future progress. It is a time to reflect on the past and step toward a future filled with possibilities,β Davis said. βWe look forward to welcoming friends, family and the entire community to this event.β

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
