For those in the Holy City, the Hajj procedures will begin on their schedule. For those of us not going on Hajj, the reason we need to keep track of of the calendar is that they might not follow the correct moonsighting and subsequent days (such as Eid al-Ghadir and Day of Mubahila) might be celebrated on the wrong day.

An Update Concerning:
The Crescent Moon of the Month of Dhu al-Hijjah, 1443 A.H.
Dear believers in the southern and western states of the United States of America,
Assalamu Alaykum.
The announcement below was released last night after moonset in Southern California. Around an hour after that, news of moon-sightings by the naked eye in San Diego started to circulate causing many believers to inquire whether the beginning of the month of Dhu al-Hijjah, 1443 A.H. had changed.
* The crescent committee of the Council of Shia Muslim Scholars of North America would like to state that for those who are content with the above-mentioned sightings and are located in the orange curve in this diagram from Charlotte (NC), going toward St. Louis (MO), Omaha (NE), to Seattle (WA), Thursday, June 30th, 2022 will be the first day of the month of Dhu al-Hijjah, 1443 A.H.
For the rest of North America, Friday, July 1st, will be the first day of the month of Dhu al-Hijjah.
We ask everyone who is interested in serving this monthly service for more cooperation and coordination in the future to avoid such incidents and to avoid putting the community in confusion. "... Cooperate in piety and God-wariness..." [Quran 5:2].

تعقيب بخصوص وضعية هلال شهر ذي الحجة الحرام
إلى سائر المؤمنين في المناطق الجنوبية والغربية في الولايات المتحدة
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
نحيطكم علماً أنّه وبعد صدور بيان لجنة الاستهلال، بنحو ساعة من غروب الشمس في جنوب كاليفورنيا انتشرت أنباء عن تحقق رؤية الهلال بالعين المجرّدة ما دعا عدداً من المؤمنين التّحري والسّؤال لمعرفة ما إذا تغير شيء.
من جهتها، تؤكد لجنة الاستهلال في مجلس العلماء بأنّ أيّ مؤمن يحصل لديه الإطمئنان بتلك الأخبار بإمكانه العمل وفقها وبالتالي سيكون الخَمِيْسُ، الوَاقِعِ فيْهِ الثَّلاثُونَ مِنْ حُزَيْرَان/جُوْن ٢٠٢٢ أوَّلَ أيامِ شَهْرِ ذِي الحِجَّةِ الحَرامِ لِعَامِ ١٤٤٣ للهِجْرَةِ لِسَائِرِ المناطِقِ الْمُمْتَدَّةِ مِنْ مَدِيْنَةِ شارْلوتْ بِولايَةِ نُوْرْثْ كارُولينا، وَمُرُوراً بمدينة ساَنْتْ لِويسْ بولاية مِيزُوري، ومدينة أُوْمَاهَا بولاية نِبْرَاسْكا، وانتهاءً بمدينة سِيَاتِل بولاية وَاشنطن، وَسَائِرِ المنَاطِقِ الَّتيْ تَحْتَها الْمُظَلَّلَةِ باِلَّلَوْنِ البُرتُقَالي في هَذَا الرَّسْمِ البَيَاني. أمّا سائر المناطق الشّمالية فكما أُعلن مسبقاً فهو الْجُمُعَة، الوَاقِعِ فِيْهِ الأوَّلَ مِنْ تَمَّوْز/جُوْلاي ٢٠٢٢ بِإذنه تَعَالَى.
نأمل من الرّاغبين بالمشاركة فيه هذه الخدمة الشهرية بذل غاية التعاون والتنسيق عملاً بقوله تعالى "وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ" لنجنّب المجتمع المؤمن أية مؤثرات سلبية محتملة.

Hameedeh got a reaction from ShiaChat Mod for an event, Juneteenth - Freedom Day, Jubilee Day (US)
Juneteenth (a portmanteau of "June" and "nineteenth"), also known as Freedom Day, Jubilee Day, Emancipation Day or Manumission Day, is an American holiday celebrated on June 19. The Emancipation Proclamation — which had been issued on January 1, 1863 — was read to enslaved African-Americans in Galveston, Texas by Gordon Granger on June 19, 1865. Among his remarks:
"The people of Texas are informed that in accordance with a Proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection therefore existing between them becomes that between employer and free laborer."
