"Juneteenth" by Synthia Saint James
|
Celebrations…we love them. Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays...count us in! But there is a new national holiday that resides within a category all its own. That holiday - Juneteenth - honors June 19, 1865’s “General Order No. 3” which informed the slaves in Texas (the last to be notified) that they were free.
