Juneteenth was originally celebrated on June 19, 1865, the day that
Union soldiers told enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas,
that the Civil War had ended and they were free. Although the
Emancipation Proclamation freed the slaves in the South in 1863, it
could not be enforced in many places until after the end of the Civil
War in 1865.
The term Juneteenth is a blend of the words June and nineteenth. The
holiday has also been called Juneteenth Independence Day or Freedom
Day. Celebrations include parades, concerts, and readings of the
Emancipation Proclamation.
For more than 150 years, African Americans have observed Juneteenth as
a day of affirmation, remembrance, and celebration. A resolution
recognizing Juneteenth as a national holiday passed the Senate last
year.
