6th Annual Juneteenth Jubilee
On June 19, 2020, the Juneteenth Celebration at the Nickleplate Amphitheater in Fishers, Indiana, marked the beginning of a transformative annual tradition. Hosted initially by Fishers Equity Awareness and later organized by the Fishers High School Future Black Leaders Organization (FBL), the event brought together community members of all backgrounds to celebrate Juneteenth, raise awareness, and ignite the fight for racial justice.
The event has since grown in size and significance, uniting individuals across Fishers and beyond, all dedicated to honoring Black history, raising funds for critical causes like the Black Lives Matter movement, and supporting those impacted by police brutality.
The Juneteenth event featured inspiring speeches from community leaders, activists, and renowned speakers, offering powerful calls for racial equality, social justice, and systemic change. With uplifting performances by musicians, spoken word artists, and dancers, the event created an atmosphere of solidarity and empowerment.
History of
theE Juneteenth Jubilee
Juneteenth Celebration at Nickleplate Amphitheater
In the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement and the tragic killing of George Floyd, a group of passionate individuals came together in 2020 to host a Juneteenth event like no other. Held at the beautiful Nickleplate Amphitheater, the event became a platform for healing, education, and community empowerment.
For the first two years, Fishers Equity Awareness, founded by alumni from Fishers High School (FHS) and Hamilton Southeastern High School (HSE), organized the event. In 2022, the Fishers High School Future Black Leaders Organization (FBL) took over, continuing the mission of unity, resilience, and justice.
A Day of Unity & Empowerment
The Juneteenth event attracted attendees from all walks of life, both Black and non-Black, united in the fight against racial injustice. Beyond celebration, the event raised funds to support the Black Lives Matter movement and individuals impacted by police brutality.
