So why, if “Juneteenth” falls on a Saturday, are federal employees getting Friday off?? This particular day is intended to benefit just one ethnic group - but they got one with MLK day about 20 years ago ... now that group is demanding more?? When does it end??

I don’t see it as benefiting one ethnic group. I see it as the nation permanently ending a wrong that had been an embarrassing part of our history.

And hundreds of thousands of men lost their right fighting for it. When I throw out my political bent and look at it from a national and human point of view, I think it is a good candidate for a national holiday.

It is a really big deal to all races going forward from the day it happened.
