Of our country and his attendance today in Galveston, is a sharp contrast to the idiot currently residing in our White House who moans n groans, bitches and whines about a day of remembrance

She is responsible for helping in making it a Federal Holiday. Opal is a Fort Worth treasure.


In June 2021, at the age of 94, her efforts succeeded as a bill to make Juneteenth a federal holiday was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Joe Biden. She was an honored guest at the bill signing ceremony, receiving the first of many pens Biden used to sign the document. As she sat in the front row, she received a standing ovation and Biden got down on one knee to greet her.

Lee is also a founding board member of Transform 1012 N. Main Street, a coalition of Fort Worth nonprofit and arts organizations working to turn a former Ku Klux Klan auditorium into the Fred Rouse Center and Museum for Arts and Community Healing. Rouse, a Black man, was lynched by a Fort Worth mob in 1921. Transform 1012 N. Main Street was formed in 2019, and announced the acquisition of the building in January 2022.

I so miss his calmness and efficiency.

It feels like our country is a circus now unregulated.
