[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Juneteenth celebrates [b]the official end of slavery [/b]in the US. It is an American holiday we should celebrate, regardless of skin tone.[/quote] No it doesn't. Please read up on it.[/quote] "Official" in the sense that, in Texas, people were still enslaved after the abolition of slavery. It took 6+ months for the remaining enslaved people to be freed. It's not like the plantation owning enslavers were gonna tell them. [/quote] It took 3.5 years, not 6 months. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juneteenth[/quote]
