Juneteenth is a day that holds deep significance in African American history, marking the end of slavery in the United States. It’s a day that commemorates the freedom of Black Americans from the shackles of slavery and celebrates their resilience and strength in the face of adversity. In recent years, Juneteenth has gained greater recognition as a national holiday, with more people recognizing its importance and taking part in celebrations across the country.
To celebrate this important day, J.J.L. Candle Co. has created a beautiful candle called We Gon' Be Alright. Inspired by the strength and resilience that African Americans have shown in the face of oppression and adversity, this candle is a symbol of hope and perseverance. Its name is a nod to the popular song by Kendrick Lamar, which has become a rallying cry for those who refuse to be defeated by systemic racism and inequality.
The We Gon' Be Alright candle is made with all-natural coconut soy wax and scented with a blend of black currant and absinthe. These warm and comforting scents are perfect for creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere in your home, whether you're celebrating Juneteenth with family and friends or just enjoying a quiet moment of reflection.
But this candle is more than just a product – it’s a way to honor the legacy of Juneteenth and to remember the struggles and triumphs of Black Americans throughout history.
