Happy•Juneteenth!!

Juneteenth is a holiday celebrated on 19 June to commemorate the emancipation of enslaved people in the US. The holiday was first celebrated in Texas, where on that date in 1865, in the aftermath of the Civil War, slaves were declared free under the terms of the 1862 Emancipation Proclamation.

Hopefully everyone is making exciting new discoveries.If I can be of any assistance, don’t hesitate to ask.

Please Be safe and Enjoy.

 

Here is an interesting video on Juneteenth.
