JUNETEENTH: Juneteenth, observed on June 19th, is the oldest internationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. This significant day dates back to 1865 when Union soldiers, led by Major General Gordon Granger, arrived in Galveston, Texas, with the news that the Civil War had ended and the enslaved were now free. This event occurred two and a half years after President Abraham Lincoln's emancipation proclamation had become official on January 1, 1863.
