I'm fine with black people celebrating.
They should celebrate it the same way St. Patrick's Day or Cinco De Mayo is celebrated and neither one of these are fed holidays.
St. Patrick's Day is a minor religious holiday that has evolved into a celebration of Irish culture and (basically) and excuse to drink to excess.

Cinco de Mayo is minor holiday in Mexico that got promoted HERE to sell Mexican beer and was chosen because it is easier to pronounce than "Diez y seis de Septiembre."

Emancipation Day (Juneteenth) commemorates OUR country ending centuries of legal human chattel slavery.

I see some differences.
