Hey everyone, this is Lee Hawkins. Thank you so much for listening to What Happened In Alabama?

We appreciate your attention and don’t take it for granted.

We wanted to give you a heads up that the show will be taking a short break this week with no new episode today - Juneteenth. The history of this day is a complicated one, but to me, it symbolizes our stride from enslavement toward freedom. And though the struggle continues, it is important to mark this milestone for what it meant to our ancestors.

We’ll be back next week on Wednesday June 26th, with episode seven.

So join us then.

And again, thank you so much for listening.
