Google doesn’t explain juneteenth? After the civil war a yankee general came to Galveston Texas and told the slaves that they had been freed. This happened on June 19, 1865. Word of the emancipation proclamation never reached Galveston.

No, Google doesn’t explain it. Google feeds people like you a history line with an 1865 date.

The year is 2022.

The question is how did an 1865 event emerge into the 23rd Century?

If you don’t know or don’t know enough, say “I don’t know” or “I’m not sure.”
