Today marks 160 years since the United States' greatest sin, slavery, had been finally abolished with Texas being forced to abide by Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. The earliest celebrations of Juneteenth were in 1866, but the holiday didn't receive federal recognition until 2021.

Texas had a right to secede, per the Ninth Amendment

If George Floyd was a field hand in the old south he'd never end up on fentanyl, he'd still be alive at the age he'd be today and likely have a happy family in his slave shack.

the last remaining old stock group, instead of the grandchildren of post civil war immigrants from Europe that larp as descendants of colonial America amglo settlers.

Trvth: the average negro is closer to a slave owner than the average white person in 2025 America

moral arguments are for losers and weaklings

Sure, you did have the right. I just didn't give a fuck. now pay your taxes to DC like a good bitch. daddy needs to send money to Israel

This is what burgers do—turn legit ethnic celebrations into token ethnic slop. St. Patrick’s Day and Cinco de Mayo are far different on their home turf than the commercial drunkfests they’ve become here.
I’m a redneck from Texas and until a couple of years ago, I knew more about Juneteenth than most non-Texan blacks. Wholesome family reunion holiday, big cookouts, cowboy stuff, rural roots even if you’re in Houston or Austin, pride in your people and history—but post 2020 it’s been blown up into a generic blackfest that most African Americans have zero connection with.

The 13th amendment was pretty bad yeah but I'd say the 14th is the actual greatest sin

my brother in Christ, Juneteenth is just an emancipation day.

black people from all over the country celebrated their own emancipation day. sure it may not have been on june 19th. but it was still the same holiday just on a different day.

in Florida they celebrated "Juneteenth" on may 29, in Georgia its may 20th, in Mississippi "juneteenth" was may 8th

Juneteenth as a holiday is not unique to Texas. June 19, is just the day we chose to celebrate all of these different emancipation days across the country.

texas niggas think they the only ones wjo celebrate the end of slavery. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emancipation_Day

>>17776484
Why are negroes so cringe? "Emancipation Day" sounds so much better than "Juneteenth" which means nothing

>>17776484
The photo with my post is captioned “Emancipation Day, Corpus Christi, 1913” and I’ve seen that term used early on in Texas as much as Juneteenth. I’m wondering how the Texas date and terminology gained prominence?

>>17776452
The exact same thing happened with Thanksgiving. Became a regional holiday in the Northeast that went national after everyone else learned about it for the first time.

The Bill of Rights restricted Congress from making laws. According to the Bill of Rights, the Federal Government was subservient to the States. After Abraham conquered the South, the reconstruction amendments were passed at gunpoint. We're all slaves now.

we don't like your kind around here, Jamal.

>>17776467
no, its definitely the 19th bar none.

>>17776789
There is literally proof of it's age posted in this thread above you. But OK /pol/

>>17776452
>most African Americans have zero connection with.
Lmao they have connection to it because the whole orign of the holiday is innately tied to them

How the hell are you having Biden Derangement Syndrome in 2025.

It's not a real holiday but as an American, I don't care because we are deprived of days off of work and/or holiday pay. American wagies need more days off work and I don't give a shit what the pretense is.

>>17778007
It has only been a federal holiday for 5 years. Unless I get a day off work the holiday isn't real.

>>17778007
Ironic since it's all of Biden's supporters who are now throwing him under the bus and washing their hands off him.
Reminder Rachel Levine sought to remove age limits for trans surgeries.
