One year ago, I had never heard of Juneteenth (or is it Juneteempf). Now, it’s our most important national holiday.

It is a very important (and Republican) holiday.

It is the day that Republican bayonets finally reached Galveston freeing the last of the democrats slaves.

The irony of Juneteenth being the same day as Father’s Day

**One year ago, I had never heard of Juneteenth***

And slavery in the North was still legal till the 13 Amendment was ratified in Dec 1865.

Everyone forgets those FIVE SLAVE STATES that remained in the Union during the war.

Back then news didn’t travel as fast as it does today. If only we could establish holidays based on when we heard important news. Maybe when we are freed from this medical tyranny & the vaccine nightmare!
