What Is Juneteenth?

Juneteenth commemorates an effective end of slavery in the United States.

It was originally an obscure holiday that originated in Texas. Now powers that be want to replace the 4th of July with Juneteenth.

Until someone alerted the media that Trump was having a rally on it.

This is the 3rd year celebrating Juneteenth as a Federal holiday.

All that means to me is no mail delivery.

I don’t fly a Juneteenth flag, fly an American flag every day.

They better NOT try to replace the 4th of July with Juneteenth.

NOT IN MY LIFETIME!!!!
