I don’t really care for it. I’d prefer it be the ratification of the 13th. That’s when black slaves were declared free. We don’t celebrate the last day of the American Revolution. We celebrate our declaration of independence from Britain.

This. Pretty sure all federal holidays are celebrating America or a person important to America for something great they did. If you listened to any discussion of Juneteenth they framed it as a day to remember how terrible America is and how far we still have to go. It is definitely not being sold as a day to celebrate America.
They also don’t mention anything about Lincoln, they don’t mention anything about the 100s of thousands of US troops who died to make it happen.
If you point any of this out though you are a racist and need to be canceled
