“Juneteenth”
That’s not even English...ebonics maybe?
They misspelled Juneteemph.
It took a while to get the news around Texas so you might have heard it on the 13th or the 19th so just abbreviate to Juneteenth. That said it used to be a Texas thing until The woke yankees stole it for a federal hioliday.
ya you would think a name for “Their Day/month” would have something a little more Sensible in the English Language... and even their upper class/elite afro Americans back this name up so thats telling in itself...
I have not read to whom the word “Juneteenth” is attributed. I think it was supposed to be something that a freed slave said - a freed slave that could not count past twelve.
It is more likely something an unsympathetic white person said in a Stephen Foster minstrel show to discredit freed slaves who were sad and dreary.
But liberals today think the word Juneteenth is cute; and it is another paid holiday.
It doesn't bother me as long as the holiday is paid for by government money and not taxpayer money; and as long as essential workers are required to show up.
