Yes, Juneteenth was when the last of the slaves were freed.
Republican bayonets finally reached Galveston on that day after the last major democrat army had surrendered.
Juneteenth is a quintessential Republican holiday.
Not quite correct. The slaves in Galveston freed on “Junteenth” were probably the last slaves freed by the Emancipation Proclamation. The last slaves in the United States (in Kentucky and Delaware) were not freed until the 13th Amendment was ratified on Dec 6, 1865
Nope. The slaves in the Confederate states were freed 1-1-63 by the Emancipation proclamation.
