Because people still don't understand why this is a national holiday, I'll explain it again.

Juneteenth is an annual celebration commemorating the freedom of all enslaved people in the USA. On June 19, 1865, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation, Union soldies went to Galveston, Texas, to enforce the freeing of all remaining slaves.

It took TWO AND A HALF YEARS for all enslaved people to be freed following the Proclamation. And while that's ignoring the fact that slavery never should have been a thing to begin with, the fact that it took that long is why we celebrate this important day.

What do you think about this space?!?!

Controversial take: summer is my least favorite season.
