No…didn’t you hear the news? It was Juneteenth when the slaves were freed. It was in all the papers this year. It’ll be a federal holiday next year.
Oh yeah , ok .....
As Mark Twain said “If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed. If you read the newspaper, you’re mis-informed.”
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.
