Happy Juneteenth
Hi all,
Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, commemorates an important step towards the end of slavery in the United States.
Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. Deriving its name from combining June and nineteenth, it is celebrated on the anniversary of the order by Major General Gordon Granger proclaiming freedom for enslaved people in Texas on June 19, 1865.
