Alright I have a confession to make. The first time I learned about Juneteenth was from an episode of Black-ish! (aired in 2017).
Now, I don't recall learning about it in my school history books and it wasn’t a holiday people asked how I celebrated. So, watching that episode pushed me to do my own investigation and this is what I’ve learned:
- Juneteenth is a holiday celebrating the legal freedom of slaves in the United States.
- The first Juneteenth celebration took place in Texas on June 19, 1865, two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. (1863)
- Texas makes Juneteenth a state holiday in 1980*.
- Juneteenth is also called “Emancipation Day,” “Jubilee Day,” and “Juneteenth Independence Day.”
