Juneteenth, observed on June 19th, commemorates the date that the last enslaved African Americans were notified of their freedom in Galveston Texas 2.5 years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation. It holds significant historical and cultural importance as a symbol of liberation, resilience, and the ongoing battle for civil rights.
