Join Pikes Peak State College for an inspiring experience with Dr. Opal Lee, the esteemed Grandmother of Juneteenth! Dr. Opal Lee’s tireless efforts led to the recognition of Juneteenth as a federal holiday, a milestone achievement in American history. Her unwavering commitment to preserving the legacy of Juneteenth and advocating for equality has left an indelible mark on our nation.
