Blacks aren't free anymore?...

They didn’t even throw off their own oppressors. White male republicans set them free from Democrats.

No. Never. Ever.
Keep in mind, the US dropped actual nuclear weapons on Japan in 1945, and they got over it...

"the enslaved"
JFC. They tried to make this a thing on A Million Little Things.
Now do 90% of Black Americans with respect to the Democrat Party Plantation and get back to us.

I wouldn’t care either way about Juneteenth being a holiday of and in itself.
The reason why I’m opposed to recognizing Juneteenth is because it’ll lead to more calls for reparations and the like.

I’ll celebrate when the Dems and Libs free black people from the mental plantation they have them captured on.

They are free, and I will celebrate that with them happily. Emancipation was a big event for this country.

No, the whole month should be federal holiday

Well, let's see... we give them welfare out the wazoo... give them a tax return for absolutely no contribution... Even with this 15% of the population creates about 80% of the problems in this country...
So, I am certain that a holiday is going to be the last step in correcting all of this...

In reality, the day of the emancipation proclamation should be a federal holiday, but since it was already a holiday with New Year’s, that wasn’t good enough.
I am fine with them adding a federal holiday in the middle of the summer. Private companies and locals don’t have to make it a day off, so no big deal. It is pandering at its finest, but in this case, fine.

I'd like the celebration to be from the 13th to the 19th...like almost a Mardi Gras...
2 raisins:
Less the fed is allowed to work
More days the gheys have to compete with blacks for all their intersectional nonsense.

Make June the official Black History Month and let the gays have February.
This way, blacks get a longer month and the gays can't have their indecent exposure freak parades in the cold.
It's a Win-win. Everyone is happy.

The DEMS have been oppressing the Blacks for decades!
They give them just enough to survive, and keep that VOTE!
And conservatives get blamed for their demise!

I'm taking Saturday off to celebrate.

Americans paid with their lives to end slavery in America. Maybe it’s time for all those ancestors of the freed slaves to pay it forward and fight a war in places like China, the Middle East and Africa to end the modern day slavery there, that is if they actually care about how bad slavery is and aren’t just trying to play perpetual victim with endless entitlements.

It's almost enough. If we can just get George Floyd carved into Mt. Rushmore everything will be cool.

The most important way that white people can "celebrate the spirit and legacy of Juneteenth is by learning about and committing to the struggle for black freedom"?
OK. Learn about it.
In the US, whites gave blacks their freedom. White people abolished slavery. Blacks didn't free themselves. This isn't Haiti.
Blacks got the right to vote because white people granted it to them. Segregation ended because white people decided to end it.

Nope need federal holidays for Rosa Parks, Medgar Evers, Thurgood Marshall, Barack Obama, Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglas and George Floyd. We have to get rid of Independence Day, Memorial Day, Veteran's Day, Columbus Day and Thanksgiving.
