The Wayne public library hosted “The Unfinished Business of Freedom: A Juneteenth Perspective on Freedom.” Sponsored by the Rabbi Israel S. Dresner Library at Wayne’s Temple Beth Tikvah and the library, it celebrated Juneteenth and Rabbi Dresner’s goal — to make the world a better place. Pastor Wayne Coleman of Paterson’s Madison Avenue CRC spoke and singer Leon B. Moses was accompanied by pianist Ron Foster.
