Juneteenth, celebrated on June 19th, marks the day in 1865 when enslaved African Americans in Texas were informed of their freedom, over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery in the United States, honors African American history and culture, and serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for racial equality. Celebrating Juneteenth fosters community solidarity and encourages education and reflection on both historical and contemporary issues of racial justice.
