    ALBANY – Albany and Dougherty county leaders joined community members donned in red, yellow and green Friday for the third annual Juneteenth Community Celebration at the Albany Civic Center.

    The celebration spotlighted about 13 community vendors, ranging from small businesses showing off their products to the Dougherty Democratic Party registering attendees to vote. It featured performances from local dance groups and singers, including Rutha Mae Harris and the Freedom Singers, a musical group that originally formed during the 1960s Civil Rights Movement.
