my social studies teacher sent my class 3 videos of Juneteenth.

In junior high school, when it came time to write book reports, my mother made me write book reports on books of black heros, such as Harriet Tubman, George Washington Carver, Frederick Douglas, etc., because she knew that I would only learn black history if she taught it to me. None of my teachers ever heard of the subjects of my book reports. Pathetic.

Actually, Black Union Soldiers delivered the message of freedom on June 15th but they could not read the General Order because Blacks was not allowed to read the order; therefore General Gordon was sent to read the General Order on June 19th! This is important because it shows that Black courageous men took important roles in freeing their people. In addition, 180,000 Black men ans women fought in the army and 200,000 more fought in other branches of the military but never received any recognition from the military or through the history books. Black men fought and died for their own independence not Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln freed slaves that was in rebellion against the government. Congress saw that the South was becoming to powerful and wealthy. Moreover, the South was able to count their slaves as three fifth of a human being which would given them more representation in Congress. This would given the Southern Politicians more electoral votes which would have given the power to elect the presidents of the United States. This is the reason Lincoln and the Northern Congress wanted to outlaw slavery. They knew that slavery was power and money for the South to control the United States. Remember, Lincoln owned slaves and many Northern Politicians owned plantations in the south!!

I hate to admit it, but I'm just learning what Juneteenth was about. I think making it a national holiday is a great idea, because of the history involved, and to acknowledge- " Yo- the civil war is over- were all in this together now".

(Martin Luther King Jr.) I had no idea their was two independence day celebration of freedom. July 4th was all I was taught. SMH........ June 19, 1865 (Juneteenth) was the official FREEDOM DAY for all black people. Juneteenth, needs to be a official HOLIDAY. We will must know our real official black history Knowledge is POWER

"Freedom at Last" didn't come until *December 6, 1865* . That's when slavery in America officially was abolished, when the 13th Amendment was ratified and added to the U.S. Constitution.

I see everyone talking about it on Twitter

This is yet another injustice African Americans have suffered. Our history-- which should be included in the teaching of History-- is not taught. At least, the TRUTH is not taught. Many American school textbooks either gloss over the subject or tell a sanitized (aka kid friendly) version of true events. You can always check out books at the library. Start with books by John Hope Franklin and Carter G. Woodson (the father of Black History Month).

Especially in this country where we have been "Willie Lynched" and had it ingrained in most of us to think of Afrikans or Black/Dark-skinned souls as being the only ones on the planet who "are slaves".

I wonder what they did the first night of freedom. Did they Masters put a out and they had to party by the rivers and lakes but they was free what happened

But Juneteenth specifically is a day of emancipation in Texas. Why should this be a national holiday, if it was only in Texas that emancipation came so belatedly?

The revolutionary war, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Memorial day,and many historical events did not originate Minnesota. but you still celebrate it in Minnesota. Juneteenth was June 19, 1865 and that was the day that slavery ended in the all of the United States. That a great day for free loving people in the United States. It is a very important part of our American history.

What happened to the "nine" between "June" and "teenth"? Juneteenth could be any day from June 13th through June 19th. DUH

do you think the white man is going to change because Juneteenth. please by

So on Juneteenth we celebrate the Union soldiers which by the way were predominantly white that fought and died in the United States Civil War that ended Slavery. The hundred of thousand Union Solders that died fighting to end slavery is ample reparation.

We should all celebrate Junteenth! It is a celebration of the "Abolishment of Slavery by the Republicans."
