noun “the emancipation of feminist ideas” the freeing of someone from slavery. “the early struggle for emancipation from slavery” Another June is upon us. While the rainbow flags begin to unfurl across the country and Pride gatherings get penciled onto calendars I’d be remised to not think about where we were just a year ago. We were four months into a global pandemic. In the United States we had 2,177,888 total positive COVID-19 test results accompanied by 112,172 total U.S. COVID-19 deaths. We were a few weeks into the summer of civil unrest that was sparked by the murder of George Floyd under the knee of a Minneapolis police officer. Here in the Twin Cities, by early June 2020 there had been nearly 604 arrests, and upwards of $500 million in damage to approximately 1,500 properties. These figures made this the second-most destructive period of civil unrest in United States history after the Los Angeles riots of 1992 (interesting I lived through both of these).
