Opal Lee, "Grandmother of Juneteenth" will not lead Walk of Freedom this year

Opal Lee, the "Grandmother of Juneteenth," will not lead this year's Walk for Freedom in Fort Worth, her granddaughter said Tuesday night. Lee fought to get Juneteenth recognized as an official holiday. This is the first time she will not lead the walk. She was hospitalized in May for unknown reasons. Dione Sims, Lee's granddaughter, said she will carry on her grandmother's legacy this year. "I will lead the way, carrying on her legacy," Sims said in a statement to CBS News Texas. Lee's annual 2.5-mile walk acknowledges the two and a half years it took for news of freedom to reach those enslaved in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865. Over the decades, the celebrations that followed became known as Juneteenth. The annual walk stepped off for the first time in Dallas last year to big crowds and a festive atmosphere. This year's Walk for Freedom starts at 9 a.m. Thursday at Fort Worth's Farrington Field.

WWE SmackDown results: R-Truth applies the STF to John Cena; CM Punk gets involved

WWE SmackDown results: The June 13th episode of WWE SmackDown proved to be a forgettable affair for John Cena. Ron Killings AKA R-Truth attacked him during the opening segment, which included LA Knight and the former Legacy mates Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes. Later in the night, the 53-year-old veteran put him in the STF and sent a message to him. Ron Killings/R-Truth, CM Punk haunt John Cena John Cena came out to the ring during the last stretch of SmackDown and called out Ron Killings for assaulting him earlier in the night. However, in a surprising development, CM Punk showed up and verbally berated the Undisputed champion ahead of their clash at Night of Champions 2025 later this month. CM Punk wants John Cena to give the fans a happy ending.#SmackDown 'The Second City Saint' spoke about their classic rivalry from over a decade ago and emphasised that the roles are reversed this time around. Back then, Punk was a heel trying to leave the company with the title while Cena was the good guy. However, the situation is the exact opposite now. Punk also used a Star Wars reference to hint at Cena possibly still being a good guy at heart. Punk eventually exited the ring, which gave Ron 'R-Truth' Killings an opportunity to attack Cena and apply the STF, a submission hold to him. Will R-Truth beat sense into John Cena on SmackDown? R-Truth is set to take on Cena on SmackDown next week. The two previously locked horns at Saturday Night's Main Event where The Marine star beat his 'fan' using underhanded tactics. Truth later interfered in Cena and Logan Paul's match with Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes. It remains to be seen if this feud is resolved on the blue brand next week.

India's Legacy whisky bags global honours at top international spirits awards

Legacy Premium Indian Whisky, from the house of Bacardi India Pvt. Ltd., has earned top honours on the global stage—winning Gold in the Blended Whisky category at the prestigious World Whiskies Awards 2025, along with a Silver medal at the Asia Spirits Masters 2025. The World Whiskies Awards is one of the most prestigious global competitions in the spirits world that select the very best in all the internationally recognised styles, and promote the world's best whiskies to consumers and trade across the globe. Whiskies are judged by nose, palate, finish, balance, quality, character, complexity and functionality. The World Whiskies Awards thus serve as the ultimate platform for whisky aficionados, industry experts, and connoisseurs to come together and celebrate the pinnacle of whisky craftsmanship. This esteemed event meticulously selects, rewards, and promotes the most outstanding whiskies, showcasing the mastery of distillers who have pushed the boundaries of flavour, complexity, and character. A Gold award on this platform is a genuine testament to excellence because each entry is evaluated on a thorough 100-point scale with a focus on aromatics, flavour, complexity, and finish. This win is further complemented by a Silver at the Asia Spirits Masters 2025, hosted by The Drinks Business Asia—reinforcing Legacy's growing acclaim on the international stage. Mahesh Kanchan, marketing director, India & neighbouring countries, Bacardi India, said, 'We are immensely proud of Legacy's Gold win at the World Whiskies Awards 2025 and Silver at the Asia Spirits Masters 2025—a landmark moment that affirms our vision of placing Indian whisky on the global map. This recognition is a powerful validation of our commitment to crafting world-class spirits that are bold, distinctive, and deeply rooted in Indian heritage. As we continue to push boundaries, innovate, and scale, Legacy leads the way in shaping a new narrative for Indian whisky—one of pride, purpose, and global potential.' A unique blend of Indian and Scottish malts with Indian grains, Legacy delivers a rich, smooth taste with fruity notes, subtle smoke, toasted oak, and a hint of spice, making it impeccably smooth and perfectly balanced. Reflecting the culture and passion of India through its craftsmanship and flavour, Legacy has received an overwhelming response from consumers since its launch. More than just a spirit, Legacy is a celebration of Indian craftsmanship — a rich, nuanced expression that bridges timeless heritage with modern sophistication. This international accolade not only validates the whisky's exceptional character but also cements Legacy's position as a rising star in the premium segment, reinforcing Bacardi's presence in the Indian Whisky space. Legacy is available in 3 sizes (750ml, 375ml, and 180ml) in key markets across Haryana, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Jharkhand, Meghalaya, Assam, Tripura, Arunachal Pradesh, West Bengal, Odisha, Maharashtra, Telangana, Kerala, Pondicherry and Goa—showcasing Bacardi's commitment to India as one of its top priority markets worldwide.
