1:47 am
delivery the emancipation proclamation and two months after general robert e lee officially surrendered. the emancipation or notification of emancipation was delayed getting to texas for a reality that historians argue about. the reality that at that point, all enslaved african-american people were officially freed from a legal standpoint within the country. for me, juneteenth is one of those reminders that the experience of in-place african-americans, brought people to this country have been a little different and included additional challenges that may not have been traditionally related to everybody in their history classes. celebrity juneteenth is an opportunity to get the whole world, the whole country to
