Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day, Jubilee Day and Cel-Liberation Day, is an American holiday celebrated on June 19. On June 19, 1865, the Emancipation Proclamation— which had been issued on January 1, 1863— was read to enslaved African Americans in Texas. Onward from there, the first official celebration of Juneteenth was a year later, where freed slaves read the proclamation themselves. It was a time for reassuring each other, for praying and for gathering remaining family members. Info
