Jason Whitlock gives his opinion on what Juneteenth is about.

Jason thinks Americans need some clarification about Juneteenth, Americans need to understand what Juneteenth is and what Juneteenth isn't.
Go to the 11:00 mark and listen, it's about 15-20 minutes long so listen at your leisure. It's good to hear what Juneteenth is from a black American's perspective because I personally had never heard of Juneteenth until 2-3 years ago and I have two black members in my family and several other black members in my extended family.

It's been celebrated by blacks in TX for decades. It took the race baiting summer of 2020 to get people to hear about it for the first time.
Don't fool yourself in thinking that the black supracemcy movement isn't pushing this to replace the real Independence Day. And white guilt cucks like Cornyn is assisting them.
Any pro-American of any race needs to be careful in supporting this holiday.

Jason has some strong opinions about the fools who fall for this crap.

Here's one...
MSN/Wash. Examiner -
All Americans should celebrate Juneteenth in light of July 4th
There are opinions that it's so close to July 4th that juneteenf will take it over like mlks bday has for others around that same time of year.
I've known blacks that didn't consider Independence Day as theirs, so this is going to be very divisive.

Only black ppl in Texas, LA, Arkansas, etc celebrated it. It was basically a smash parade and cookout day.
I'd bet 85% of the country had never heard of it before 2020.

Jason Whitlock caters to a certain group of people for clicks.
I listened from the 11:00 mark and what he is saying is absolute BS. Juneteenth was celebrated when I was a little kid and I'm 49 years old now (plus I grew up in Louisiana). Trust me.. if you grew up in the black church you recognized and celebrated Juneteenth. No there weren't big parades everywhere etc but it wasn't something that was taught and acknowledged.
I saw the comments Candace Owens made about Juneteenth. She's a really sad individual. But I'm not mad at her. As long as people like her, Jason Whitlock and Rachel Dolezal (or any other apologist on both sides of the coin) can say odd ball comments, get some attention and make a few dollars off of it they will continue to exist.

Must be a TX/LA/AR thing, never heard of in MO. Jason said he never heard of anyone celebrating Juneteenth outside of TX until George Floyd was killed.....sounds about right. Something I didn't know until recently was Memorial Day was the original celebration for the end of the Civil War and the end of slavery so I'm not sure why Memorial Day isn't part of the celebration for the end of slavery? That would make sense to me.

A Google search would dispute that. I can only speak from my experiences. In the 1990's I saw celebrations in Augusta, Ga; Chicago and Milwaukee (I had summer internships in those places.
So in fairness.. I dont know Jason Whitlock or much about him. But for him to say he didn't see any celebration outside of Texas before recent times makes me assume he didn't grow up in a black church or community.

I made a thread the other day about Juneteenth that got some criticism.
But anyone who pays attention, knows what the whole Juneteenth thing is really about. It's obviously a reaction and outgrowth of the George Floyd/BLM uprisings from 2020. As had been mentioned, no one even knew about this Juneteenth until a few years ago, and now all the sudden we have to do some sort of forced celebration about it.
But here is an example of how I see this holiday. I was at a restaurant on 6/19 with my family. And ESPN was on. They had some commercial celebrating Juneteenth, and it was basically a montage of modern black people raising their fists, protesting for George Floyd and people in "don't breathe masks", as well as left wing activists like Ibram X Kindi in the commercial. The day is clearly meant to be another promotion of the Democrat party and an opportunity to grow left wing activism. That's it.
The only issues they may have screwed up on, is the date. June is already swallowed whole by the rainbow people, and all the kids are out of school so won't even know about it or won't have to be force-fed more white guilt propaganda.

He's lived in Indianapolis, MN, KC, LA, and now TN and he claims he never celebrated Juneteenth in all his +50 years of life, my wife is a 60 year old black woman and she never heard of Juneteenth until 2-3 years ago,

LMAO...do you realize why the day of June 19th was picked and that it was first celebrated in the 1860's? I understand why most people have never heard of it. It's not taught in school, it's not something you'd get introduced to unless you were part of that community. but Geeesh common on man.

Well your wife, Whitlock, and Candace Owens are clearly black faces for white supremacy according to that poster. I know I'm not the only one that read all he has posted and not said..."you could have just called them uncle Tom's instead of writing all that, we know you wanted too". The non-black blacks that Joe Biden has talked about.

I'm sure there is a lot more information to her background that you holding out on. Cause there's an asterisk somewhere.. *she black but grew up overseas, *she black but lived in Maine all her life.. something

You said it not me!!!!
FYI I have nothing negative to say about that man's wife. Why would I even think that? Just because she married outside her race... dude there is every race possible in my family. Owens, Whitlock and that Rachel lady just come across as people that look in the mirror and don't like what they see.

I'd never heard of it until I moved to Texas in 1964. And then I only heard one or two mentions of it in all the years since, until a couple of years ago.
This is the first 'big deal' year that I recall.
