It is EXPLODING today but may just be geographically isolated
it is very, VERY hard for me to not troll all my white-liberal friends posting this
how white and culturally secluded do you have to be to be so late to the game, here?

I mean we learned about the freeing of slaves, the Emancipation Proclamation, when it happened, etc, but it wasn't presented as a Juneteenth holiday. I'm guessing more people in Texas were taught about it than elsewhere

I went to school in the north and didn't even learn about it. If it's a holiday that school was not closed for, I can guarantee that people it didn't pertain to didn't care. Then again, this was a different era now.

Probably because this was pretty much a Texas thing and covered in Texas education... Just like I wouldn't expect anyone outside of Alabama to know that the only monument in the world to an insect is located in Alabama....

I’m going to ask if that’s what they’re saying.
Celebrate Juneteenth!
June 10th?
Juneteenth!
June 10th was last week, idiot.

Well it's not a national holiday and has nothing to do with most of the country.
Why would someone in Michigan celebrate this?
I grew up in Texas, so I learned about it, but I understand why most probably didn't. It's a regional date.

Right, just like I'm sure a lot of people don't realize that Confederate Memorial Day is actually still a state holiday in Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, and South Carolina. I don't believe the United States began to formally recognize "Juneteenth" at all until the late 90s.

I honestly have never heard of this until the past week. Still have no idea what it is in reference too and I dont give a shite. If it were important I would know about it. Also, who the frick names something of importance Juneteenth. That's not even a word.
