And the Pope didn't let Galileo off the hook until the 90's. Better late than never, I say.

I was taught American history multiple times by Northwestern progressive women. Good times.

I thought Juneteenth was something associated with Swisha House and the kappa beach party in Galveston. It was a Texas thing. Let's not act like it was covered in history books.
