Juneteenth

Juneteenth marks a pivotal moment in American history, observed on June 19, 1865, when Union soldiers brought the long-awaited news of freedom to enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas — effectively enforcing President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation two and a half years after its issuance. Celebrated as America's second Independence Day, Juneteenth commemorates the abolition of slavery in the United States.
