Summary?
The summary is Juneteenth originated in TX.
Juneteenth was originally a celebration for black Americans in TX to commemorate/remember the last slaves in America being notified they were now a free people.
Jason says Juneteenth wouldn't not be a national holiday if not for the death of George Floyd.
Jason believes Juneteenth will never be a holiday that's celebrated by a majority of Americans.
