“As we gather today as a community, let’s not forget the struggle of so many who came before in their quest for a more accepting, inclusive, and just world! We continue our efforts in Federal Way to build a more inclusive community. Today’s event and later this month our Juneteenth Flag raising celebrate the diversity of our community- these events promote equality. They’re more than just symbols. Collectively, they confirm our commitment to action and to change.” - Mayor Jim Ferrell (June 1st, 2022)
