June 19, 2026, is JUNETEENTH/ FREEDOM DAY

Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day, commemorates June 19, 1865, when Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced that enslaved African Americans were free more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation had been issued. This moment marked the effective end of slavery in the United States for the last remaining enslaved people in the Confederacy. Over time, Juneteenth became a day of reflection, celebration, and cultural pride, recognizing both emancipation and the ongoing struggle for true racial justice. It is now a federally recognized holiday in the United States, observed annually on June 19.
