Gods am I glad to have gotten out of that city...

"Juneteenth"? Can't some of these "cultures" just have one celebration that doesn't seem to involve some mob or another beating someone to death?

I feel a bit nostalgic about Juneteenth. It was my father-in-law’s birthday and, as he always had a number of people of color working for him, he would have a big party.

Lots of people (not in Texas) don’t know what Juneteenth is or why it’s celebrated.

I’m actually surprised they were celebrating it in that lovely apartment complex.
