Juneteenth is a holiday several states are adopting, which is crucial to many in the Black community. But do you know why it is meaningful and how to be a community ally, not just a food allergy ally? We'll explore the history of this pivotal day, allyship, and staying food allergy safe as we sit down with Aleasa Word, FAACT's Vice President of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
