Today, we celebrate Juneteenth, a pivotal day in America’s history. Celebrated annually on June 19th, Juneteenth commemorates the day Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay in 1865 and decreed that the more than 25,000 enslaved Black men and women were free by executive order. This announcement came two years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation of 1863, which had yet to be implemented in all Confederate-controlled territories. Juneteenth serves as a reminder of the delayed justice many men, women, and children had to endure. In celebration of freedom, equality, and achievements, today is a day to reflect on all aspects of American history and look ahead to a future of continued progress. #Juneteenth #TouchdownPR
