NET Dems May Meeting

We are excited to welcome Dione Sims to speak at our May meeting! Dione Sims, President and Founder of Unity Unlimited, Inc., is a force for positive change. With a passion for unity and understanding, she’s the driving force behind impactful initiatives. Since 2015, Dione co-produced the Annual Juneteenth Fort Worth Celebration with her grandmother Dr. Opal Lee, engineered the Opal’s Walk campaign for national Juneteenth recognition, and created the Your Voice Unleashed enrichment program to provide youth exposure to vocational and cultural experiences. Not stopping there, she sponsors Opal’s Farm, tackling food insecurity and offering agricultural training and employment. Regarded as the “Granddaughter of Juneteenth,” she was present at the White House alongside Dr. Opal Lee for the historic bill signing, establishing Juneteenth as a federal holiday. Mrs. Sims served as the Founding Executive Director and is a current legacy board member of the National Juneteenth Museum where she champions the powerful message of freedom embedded in Juneteenth. As always: come at 6 to eat, 7 to meet!
