To be honest, calendars didn’t mean much back then so the date is flexible between 6/12 - 6/20, inclusive.

To celebrate, I’m selling CD’s in front of Parrains.

quote:

Juneteenth, also known as Juneteenth Independence Day or Freedom Day, is an American holiday that commemorates the June 19, 1865, announcement of the abolition of slavery in the U.S. state of Texas, and more generally the emancipation of enslaved African-Americans throughout the former Confederacy of the southern United States


I'm fairly certain not a lot of people here knows that this is or celebrate it.
