Juneteenth, although an important historical date commemorating Gordon Granger's General Order No. 3, is like all other caricatures of black and American history. It segregates our society into races and classes rather than allowing for the cultural, racial, and historical mixing that is America. Throughout this special episode of TST we will explore the unauthorized, but historically documented, history of the United States through the Quaker anti-trafficking petition of 1688 to the usage of black caricatures in the 1800s and the terrorizing of Republican voters post Civil War, to the same tactics being employed today through the use of a fake ‘black subculture' and word magic.-FREE ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachingsTwitter: https://twitter.com/TST___RadioFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachingsWEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early show access): http://thesecretteachings.infoPaypal: rdgable@yahoo.comCashApp: $rdgableBuy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/tstradioSUBSCRIBE TO NETWORK: http://aftermath.mediaEMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.com
President Abraham Lincoln had emancipated people held in slavery two-and-a half-years earlier and the Confederacy had surrendered, yet the state of Texas still hadn’t acknowledged the freedom of enslaved persons. However, on June 19, 1865, Union army general Gordon Granger rode into Galveston, Texas and demanded that all enslaved persons be released. Imagine the shock and joy as shackles fell off and those in bondage heard the pronouncement of freedom. God sees the oppressed, and He’ll ultimately announce freedom for those under the weight of injustice. This is true now just as it was true in Moses’ day. God appeared to him from a burning bush, with an urgent message: “I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt,” God said (Exodus 3:7). He not only saw Egypt’s brutality against Israel—but He also planned to do something about it. “I have come down to rescue them,” God declared, “and to bring them . . . into a good and spacious land” (v. 8). He intended to declare freedom to Israel, and Moses would be the mouthpiece. “I am sending you to Pharaoh,” God told his servant, “to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt” (v. 10). Though God’s timing may not happen as quickly as we hope, one day He’ll free us from all bondage and injustice. He gives hope and liberation to all who are oppressed.
En juin 2021, Juneteenth a été déclaré 11e jour férié fédéral. Pour rappel, la dernière fois qu'un jour férié avait été créé, c'était en 1983 pour le MLK Day, en hommage à Martin Luther King. Juneteenth, c'est la contraction des mots june (juin) et nineteenth (dix-neuf) car c'est le 19 juin 1865 au Texas que le général unioniste Gordon Granger a signé l'ordre d'émancipation des Noirs réduits en esclavage. C'est ainsi que sa célébration est intégrée à la culture afro-américaine. Pourquoi cette fête originaire du Texas a-t-elle pris une si grande importance dans le pays? Comment se passent les célébrations? Plus largement, que signifie-t-elle pour la communauté afro-américaine et pour la société américaine?

In 1865, Union Army Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to inform the country's last enslaved people that they had been freed under the Emancipation Proclamation. The day now known as Juneteenth was formally recognized as a national holiday two years ago, due in large part to the activism of retired teacher Opal Lee. She discussed the message of Juneteenth with Geoff Bennett. PBS NewsHour is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders
Recap Question: What Do You Mean...Free-ish? Slavery didn t end in 1865. It just evolved. It turned into decades of terrorism, violence, and lynching, said Bryan Stevenson, delivering the 2017 Tanner Lecture on Human Values. Bryan Stevenson lawyer, social justice activist, law professor, and founder of Equal Justice Initiative says the abolition of chattel slavery left the door open for slavery to evolve. The core issue with its evolution is the prevailing belief in white supremacy.Cornerstone Speech March 21, 1861, Savannah GAAlexander Stevens, VP of the Confederacy delivered the Cornerstone Speech: Defense of slavery.

Emancipation Proclamation (1863) and the 13th Amendment (1865)"In my view as a scholar of race and colonialism, Emancipation Days Juneteenth in Texas are not what many people think, because emancipation did not do what most of us think it did." Dr Kris Manjapra, Dept of History Tufts University General Order No. 3 - National ArchivesOn June 19, 1865, two and a half years after President Abraham Lincoln s historic Emancipation Proclamation, U.S. Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger issued General Order No. 3, which informed the people of Texas that all enslaved people were now free. Granger commanded the Headquarters District of Texas, and his troops had arrived in Galveston the previous day.

The Abolition Amendment would finally finish the job started by the Civil War, Emancipation Proclamation, and 13th Amendment and end the morally reprehensible practice of slavery and forced labor in America, and send a clear message: in this country, no person will be stripped of their basic humanity and forced to toil for someone else s profit.
Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. Juneteenth marks the anniversary of the announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army general Gordon Granger on June 19, 1865, proclaiming freedom for enslaved people in Texas. Since June 19, 2022, just passed, I wanted to share my thoughts on the matter and how it affects me and how I see it affecting others also. #EP172 #PneuPneumaGodcast #NormanBrown #Juneteenth #CHH #Jesus #Cristiano #Dios #bible #God #MTR #prayer #christian #podcast #KevinSamuels Please, give us a 5-Star rating and leave an Inspirational comment, if you are an Apple Podcast listener.

(CNN) This year marks the second year Juneteenth will be observed as a federal holiday. June 19 commemorates the day in 1865 when enslaved people in Texas were told by Union Army Gen. Gordon Granger that they had been liberated. Granger's announcement came almost three years after the Emancipation Proclamation Elder Curtis Tait with word for Good Morning Beatrice AL. 36425 Preach Elder Curtis Tait Tebuho Mulala Foundation Tebuho Mulala @https://www.facebook.com/groups/99424452360 https://www.aldailynews.com/juneteenth-marked-as-state-holiday-in-alabama-this-year/ JUNE 20 2022 MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey has authorized Juneteenth Day — the federal holiday marking the end of slavery — as a holiday for state workers this year in Alabama. Ivey issued a memo earlier this month authorizing the day as a holiday for state workers. State offices will be closed on June 20 for the holiday. Juneteenth, or June 19, falls on a Sunday this year, so the holiday is being recognized the following Monday. President Joe Biden signed legislation last year to make Juneteenth a federal holiday to recognize the end of slavery. Ivey authorized the holiday for state employees since its designated at the federal level, spokeswoman Gina Maiola wrote in an email. “However, it is important to remember that ultimately the Legislature must decide if this will become a permanent state holiday,” Maiola wrote.

Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans. Juneteenth marks the anniversary of the announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army general Gordon Granger on June 19, 1865, proclaiming freedom for enslaved people in Texas. Originating in Galveston, the holiday has been celebrated annually on June 19 in various parts of the United States since the 1860s, often broadly celebrating African-American culture. The day was first recognized as a federal holiday in June 2021, when President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law.Early celebrations date to 1866, at first involving church-centered community gatherings in Texas. They spread across the South and became more commercialized in the 1920s and 1930s, often centering on a food festival. Participants in the Great Migration out of the South carried their celebrations to other parts of the country. During the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s, these celebrations were eclipsed by the nonviolent determination to achieve civil rights, but grew in popularity again in the 1970s with a focus on African American freedom and African-American arts. Beginning with Texas by proclamation in 1938, and by legislation in 1979, each U.S. state and the District of Columbia have formally recognized the holiday in some way. With its adoption in certain parts of Mexico, the holiday became an international holiday. Juneteenth is celebrated by the Mascogos, descendants of Black Seminoles who escaped from slavery in 1852 and settled in Coahuila, Mexico.Celebratory traditions often include public readings of the Emancipation Proclamation, singing traditional songs such as "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" and "Lift Every Voice and Sing", and the reading of works by noted African-American writers, such as Ralph Ellison and Maya Angelou. Some Juneteenth celebrations also include rodeos, street fairs, cookouts, family reunions, park parties, historical reenactments, and Miss Juneteenth contests. In 2021, Juneteenth became the first new federal holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was adopted in 1983.For more podcasts visit, www.steveryan.comSupport the show

Juneteenth, or “Freedom Day” is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. It was on June 19, 1865 that Union soldiers, led by Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger, landed in Galveston, Texas with news that the war had ended and that all slaves were free. This holiday is considered the “longest running African-American holiday” and has been called “America's second Independence Day.” Q2: What is the significance of this year's Juneteenth celebration in Oregon? Oregon Senate Approves Juneteenth as Official State Holiday 50th anniversary celebration of Juneteenth will be in person this year, after having to go virtual during pandemic. After so much grief and hardship, it is time to provide some healing and celebration, and take this as an opportunity to celebrate all the amazing work done by the REACH program: Over 150 partners have collaborated in this work. The REACH program was pivotal in the establishment of the first drive-thru vaccine clinic in Multnomah County. Vaccinated more than 22,309 people. (Not including data from January and February - where they held multiple clinics vaccination of 500+ people) Q3: What are the key events happening this weekend to celebrate Juneteenth in Oregon? Wattles Boys and Girls Club Health FairThey will be providing plant starters from Black farmers, vaccines, food, and games. 50th anniversary celebration of Juneteenth in North PortlandTalk about the displacement in Vanport and Albina and the importance of taking up space there. Gresham celebrationsBecause of the displacement due to redlining, gentrification, etc., a lot of the Black community is now in Gresham. The celebration in Vance Park in Gresham is hoping for a huge turnout and is put on by Play Grow Learn, a fantastic organization that “is dedicated to healthy opportunities for sheltered and underserved youth in the community to play, grow, and learn. Initially aimed to support homeless youth, with the extended mission to serve all disenfranchised youth and families.” There will also be an afterparty in Downtown Rockwood Q4: During our Juneteenth events, we will be asking questions from the REACH team and some of the long-standing partners in the African American and African Immigrant and refugee communities of Multnomah County the following questions and we thought it would be great to ask these of all of you! What does Black Joy, Liberation and Healing look like to you? What's your special message to anyone about the Juneteenth celebration? Name the challenges you encountered during COVID and how did you get through those? Share your responses with REACH Facebook or Ask a Black Doctor on The Numberz. Q5: Is it safe to gather in large groups for holiday events this weekend? What are COVID cases looking like? With summer arriving, school out, and many of us enjoying the warmer weather, events like Juneteenth will bring people, families and communities together. Statewide, COVID-19 cases appear to be leveling. Test positivity has not changed much lately and was 11.7% on June 13. During the last month, daily reported case counts also have leveled, from a rolling seven-day average of 1,401 cases a day on May 17, to 1,487 reported on June 13. However, these numbers are likely an undercount because many people are using at-home tests and not reporting the results. We also know many others are not getting tested. So if you are out and about, you will be exposed to COVID-19. If you are planning to celebrate Juneteenth, celebrating outdoors is safer than celebrating indoors. And we encourage folks who are older or at high risk to wear a mask in indoor public spaces. The Number One thing you can do to protect yourself, your family and your community, is to get vaccinated and boosted. Q6: If I am in a large group outside, should I wear a mask? This depends on personal factors, your risk level and your comfort level. For folks who are at high risk, or for folks who care for someone at higher risk, or who live with someone at high risk, wearing a mask in indoor public places offers extra protection. However, the evidence we have seen suggests the virus in its current form can spread much more easily indoors. And like we said earlier, most outdoor settings are safer. Q7: What is the latest news on vaccinations and boosters for children under 5? We know that many families with children under 5 have been eager to vaccinate their youngest children. The FDA and the CDC and their advisory committees are meeting this week and this Saturday to consider two vaccines for young children: Pfizer-BioNTech's, for children 6 months old to under 5 years; and Moderna's, for children 6 months old to under 6 years. If the Western States Scientific Study Review Pact and Governor Kate Brown approve of the FDA and CDC review this weekend, the vaccine for children under 5 could be available as early as next week in Oregon. We encourage parents who want to vaccinate their children under 5 to check with their pediatricians, local public health authority, or a trusted health care provider first, to see if they have the vaccine. If you don't have a health care provider or pediatrician, call 211 and they can help you find the vaccine.

The Thirteenth Amendment (Amendment XIII) to the United States Constitution abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. The amendment was passed by Congress on January 31, 1865, and ratified by the required 27 of the then 36 states on December 6, 1865, and proclaimed on December 18. It was the first of the three Reconstruction Amendments adopted following the American Civil War. President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, effective on January 1, 1863, declared that the enslaved in Confederate-controlled areas were free. When they escaped to Union lines or federal forces—including now-former slaves—advanced south, emancipation occurred without any compensation to the former owners. Texas was the last Confederate territory reached by the Union army. On June 19, 1865—Juneteenth—U.S. Army general Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to proclaim the war had ended and so had slavery (in the Confederate states). In the slave-owning areas controlled by Union forces on January 1, 1863, state action was used to abolish slavery. The exceptions were Kentucky and Delaware, where slavery was finally ended by the Thirteenth Amendment in December 1865. In contrast to the other Reconstruction Amendments, the Thirteenth Amendment has rarely been cited in case law, but has been used to strike down peonage and some race-based discrimination as "badges and incidents of slavery". The Thirteenth Amendment has also been invoked to empower Congress to make laws against modern forms of slavery, such as sex trafficking. Since 1776, states had divided into states that allowed or states that prohibited slavery. Slavery was implicitly recognized in the original Constitution in provisions such as Article 1, Section 2, Clause 3, commonly known as the Three-Fifths Compromise, which provided that three-fifths of each state's enslaved population (“other persons”) was to be added to its free population for the purposes of apportioning seats in the United States House of Representatives and direct taxes among the states. Article 4, Section 2, provided that slaves held under the laws of one state, who escaped to another state, did not become free, but remained slaves. Though three million Confederate slaves were in fact eventually freed as a result of Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, their post-war status was uncertain. To ensure the abolition was beyond legal challenge, an amendment to the Constitution to that effect was initiated. On April 8, 1864, the Senate passed an amendment to abolish slavery. After one unsuccessful vote and extensive legislative maneuvering by the Lincoln administration, the House followed suit on January 31, 1865. The measure was swiftly ratified by nearly all Northern states, along with a sufficient number of border states (slave states not part of the Confederacy) up to the assassination of President Lincoln. However, the approval came via his successor, President Andrew Johnson, who encouraged the "reconstructed" Southern states of Alabama, North Carolina, and Georgia to agree, which brought the count to 27 states, leading to its adoption before the end of 1865.
In today's jam-packed Best of 2021: Sam and Emma host author Clint Smith, staff writer at the Atlantic, to discuss his new book, How the Word is Passed: A Reckoning with the History of Slavery Across America on how the legacy of slavery has been passed down and obscured through generations of storytelling, and the manner in which this manifests in modern society. They walk through the sites that Smith visits in his book – from Monticello, looking at how the stories of Thomas Jefferson perfectly encapsulate the cognitive dissonance of how Americans view ourselves, to Angola Prison as a symbol of modern enslavement literally build upon a plantation – and how the heirloom of ideology is passed down through every element of our society, through education, through infrastructure, and certainly through community policing measures. Smith explores his experiences at a Sons of Confederate Veterans celebration, and the importance of elevating empirical historical facts in making space for activists and organizers to express contemporary racism as carrying the remnants and residues of these systems through all elements of American society. Then Sam sits down with with Harvard history professor Annette Gordon-Reed on her new book, On Juneteenth, which explores the Texas roots and national consciousness of the holiday celebrating the end of slavery in the South. Beginning in the 1500s, Gordon-Reed walks us through the arrival of slavery in Texas with Spanish settlers, and its development as an Enslaver's Republic as it broke away from Mexico and U.S. slaveholders ventured into the state to capitalize on the protection of the industry. Then, they discuss Gordon Granger's arrival in Texas on June 19, 1865, to enforce the Emancipation Proclamation, and the active and direct removal of status from former slave owners and deliverance of autonomy to Black freed folk, before they move into the violence of reconstruction in Texas and the South. Professor Gordon-Reed then walks through the importance of Juneteenth since the arrival of Granger, with the purchasing of what would become Emancipation Park in Houston as a grounds for celebration directly following it, why this day, in particular, took off as a celebration of manumission, and how Juneteenth has come into more widespread popularity. Lastly, Sam and Emma are joined by Jason Myles, co-host of the This Is Revolution podcast, as they dissect his Medium article, “I Was a Teenage Anarchist," on the growth of the punk movement around the concepts of authenticity and deconstruction, how that hindered its growth and ability to alter the mainstream, instead, setting it up to be absorbed by the machine, and what that can teach us about the state of the online left today.

I always refer to the brilliant Dinesh D'Souza, as India's Gift To America. One of his tweets went viral this past week.... “Democrats prefer #juneteenthday to the real occasion on which slavery was abolished—the date the 13th Amendment was passed permanently ending American slavery. This is an awkward day for Democrats because the vast majority of them—even in the North—opposed the 13th Amendment!” - Twitter, June 19, 2021, The Liberty Daily, by J.D. Rucker There are three days that would be far more historically accurate, and NOT just a false representation of the ending of slavery: The amendment was passed by Congress on January 31, 1865. It was ratified by the required 27 of the then 36 states on December 6, 1865 and proclaimed on December 18, 1965. Any of these three days are FAR MORE ACCURATE in the history of abolishing slavery and starting the diminishment of racism in America than “Juneteenth” which is the anniversary date of June 19, 1865. It was on that day that the announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army general Gordon Granger was made, proclaiming and enforcing freedom of enslaved people in Texas, which was the last state of the Confederacy with institutional slavery. The fake administration made a real show of the JUNETEENTH DAY occasion, if for no other reason than to overshadow our upcoming national celebration of our emancipation from England on July 4, 1776. Democrats have successfully, confused the last few generations of 'people of color' about the history of slavery, with many believing that the Democrats were the heroes of emancipation, when in fact they were the enemies. It would be a great idea for you to watch the film - LINCOLN (starring Daniel Day Lewis) - just to see what lengths the GREAT EMANCIPATOR went through to end slavery legally. The Emancipation Proclamation did NOT do it. My great-grandmother (Lillian Harris Payne) was known for her annual Emancipation Day pageants in Richmond VA, held on the December or January dates, in the previously segregated colored section of Richmond known as Jackson Ward, complete with entertainment, a parade, speeches by former slaves, and food...and it was a big deal. The residents of the late 19th and early 20th century, loved Lincoln and Republicans, as much as Donald Trump is loved today. Of course, there were the losers of the war, the Democrats, carrying out their plan to murder this beloved President...and the rest is history. This is why the true history of the passing and ratification of the 13th Amendment, are hidden in this fake celebratory gesture, which the Left has used to distract Americans from the AZ and GA AUDITS, the BORDER Crisis, the deadly JABS, rising gas and food prices, and the increasing violence in communities of color, and attacks on innocent citizens, BY people of color. Distractions have worked well in the past for deep state cabal, but people, even a significant number of 'black' folks are realizing that the Left has always been the REAL enemies of freedom in America.

Good Morning it's Thursday June 24th, and this is The Wenatchee World's podcast, Slices of Wenatchee. We're excited to bring you a closer look at one of our top stories and other announcements every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Today --- About 70 people gathered Saturday for Wenatchee's second annual Juneteenth celebration. The Pioneer Park event came just two days after President Joe Biden signed into law a bill making Juneteenth a federally recognized holiday.

Now our feature story… About 70 people gathered Saturday for Wenatchee's second annual Juneteenth celebration. The Pioneer Park event came just two days after President Joe Biden signed into law a bill making Juneteenth a federally recognized holiday. Chelsea Murphy, event organizer, said she was “over the moon” seeing people come together at the park. She noted that she's so thankful to be a Black woman today, in this community. To her, knowing what her ancestors have overcome - it's definitely a day of celebration. Murphy said she is excited for the future of Juneteenth in the Valley and hopes knowledge of the holiday will grow over time. Murphy explained that everyone should share in the celebration of Juneteenth. The day is for all Americans, not just for the Black community. Families can take this day, learn a little, and have their own special way of celebrating. A lot of people were protesting and marching for Juneteenth last year, but now in 2021, people can take a break and share the joy while gathered together. Murphy says that she knows that there are things that we still need to work on, but for the holiday she paused for joy. It's the second year Wenatchee Valley residents have gathered for the celebration. The history of Juneteenth dates to June 19, 1865, when Union Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to announce the Civil War had ended. Granger's arrival freed enslaved people in the region a full two years after Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. After the Emancipation Proclamation had been signed there weren't enough Union troops in Texas to enforce the order until Granger's arrival and the end of the Civil War. Wenatchee resident Kim Steensma brought her two daughters out to the event. She told us that Wenatchee is “doing so many new things, and she's just grateful that we could do this as a community. Sarah Horowitz, a Leavenworth resident, also came to the park celebration with her family. She said it is important to participate in Juneteenth. To Horowtiz, we know too much now to be blind or ignorant and celebrating this holiday means an awareness of people who came before. Cameron Shepherd Beyenberg, a Wenatchee resident and poet, spoke during the event. She emphasized that the emancipation of all people is a true celebration of independence.

This follows a meeting earlier this month when Chelan County commissioners met with the county's Community Development Director Jim Brown to work on changes to the draft of the short-term rental code. Apparently, the changes incorporated from the workshops last week did not substantially change the draft of short-term rental code. Changes were mostly focused on processes for registering. Drafts of the short-term rental code and recordings of short-term rental workshops are available at wwrld.us/rentalspage. You can also send comments to CD.STRComment@co.chelan.wa.us by email until July 2nd. The board of commissioners plans to make a final decision on the code July 14. Now, some RECENT history… Last year was Wenatchee's first ever official Juneteenth event. The day has been celebrated since the late 1800s, but its recognition in recent years has seen a phenomenal growth rate within communities and organizations throughout the country. And last year though it was a recognized holiday in Washington, it was not a legal state holiday. The death of George Floyd and weeks of national protests that occurred last year intensified focus on the holiday, and the larger issue of racial discrimination in America. Cities across North Central Washington joined those Black Lives Matter protests, often drawing more than 1,000 people for speeches and marches. And at last year's Juneteenth celebration in Wenatchee music was played, information was shared and voter registration was encouraged. Thanks for listening.

Plausibly Live! - The Official Podcast of The Dave Bowman Show
Social media arguments have become a royal pain in the behind. The latest one (for me) was getting asked an “innocent” question (it's a set-up), “Hey Dave, how do you feel about Juneteenth becoming a Federal Holiday?” The expected answer wasn't what she expected, but that is because we as a nation are badly ignorant of our history. We should all be celebrating Juneteenth because it is a reminder of our nations history…
Buckle up and get ready to have a good time. We start with talking about MacKenzie Scott the American novelist and philanthropist. She's up to her same old habits of donating money to help the world. At this point she has become family to the show. Next we pay tribute to Juneteenth. Juneteenth was recognized as a federal holiday on June 17, 2021, when President Joe Biden (Money Bags Joe) signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law. Juneteenth's commemoration is on the anniversary date of the June 19, 1865, announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army general Gordon Granger, proclaiming and enforcing freedom of enslaved people in Texas, which was the last state of the Confederacy with institutional slavery.Sometimes when you hear a song from your past that you haven't heard in a long time, that song takes you back to a special time in your life. This week in "Trav's R&B Corner" we take it back and get "Foolish" with one of the most infamous remix beats of all time.And once again we bring in our special guest Old Man for another edition of "Easy Money w/ Old Man." This week we start the conversation around budgeting tools and we have the "Stock of the Week."Finally get a word of encouragement and inspiration from this week's edition of "Drop a Gem."
Happy Jubilee Day! In this episode of the Better U Leadership podcast, Angela shares a few facts about the new Juneteenth National Independence Day law. Juneteenth (officially Juneteenth National Independence Day and historically known as Jubilee Day, Black Independence Day, and Emancipation Day) is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating emancipation of enslaved African Americans. It is also often observed for celebrating African American culture. Originating in Galveston, Texas, it has been celebrated annually on June 19 in various parts of the United States since 1866. The day was recognized as a federal holiday on June 17, 2021, when President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act into law. Juneteenth's commemoration is on the anniversary date of the June 19, 1865, announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army general Gordon Granger, proclaiming and enforcing freedom of enslaved people in Texas, which was then the last state of the former Confederacy in which slavery was still being permitted by the state government.

On June 19, 1865, union general Gordon Granger landed in Galveston and issued some general orders. His General Order No. 3 informed the people of Texas that all the slaves in Texas were now free. Since then, "Juneteenth" has been celebrated in Texas as the anniversary of emancipation. Juneteenth became an official Texas state holiday in 1980. In 2021, the U.S. followed Texas' lead and now a fateful day in Texas history is a holiday for the entire nation. Learn the history behind the emancipation proclamation and General Order No. 3 from the author who literally wrote the book on Juneteenth in this episode of Wise About Texas.
Emma hosts today's Majority Report featuring a recent interview Sam recorded with Harvard history professor Annette Gordon-Reed on her new book, On Juneteenth, which explores the Texas roots and national consciousness of the holiday celebrating the end of slavery in the South. Beginning in the 1500s, Gordon-Reed walks us through the arrival of slavery in Texas with Spanish settlers, and its development as an Enslaver's Republic as it broke away from Mexico and U.S. slaveholders ventured into the state to capitalize on the protection of the industry. Then, they discuss Gordon Granger's arrival in Texas on June 19, 1865, to enforce the Emancipation Proclamation, and the active and direct removal of status from former slave owners and deliverance of autonomy to Black freed folk, before they move into the violence of reconstruction in Texas and the South. Professor Gordon-Reed then walks through the importance of Juneteenth since the arrival of Granger, with the purchasing of what would become Emancipation Park in Houston as a grounds for celebration directly following it, why this day, in particular, took off as a celebration of manumission, and how Juneteenth has come into more widespread popularity. They round out the discussion by touching on Gordon-Reed's experience as one of the first Black students at her elementary school following Brown v. Board. Emma concludes the first half by watching Biden get stumped by U.S. history once again and come out against interference in foreign elections before she looks into Andrew Yang's horrifying and violent dehumanization of homeless and mentally ill New Yorkers. And in the Fun Half: Emma and Matt explore the absurdity of Q anon leadership, driven home by their lack of awareness on the 69/420 connection, and look into the history between Nicholas Wade, who propagated recent Covid Lab Leak theories, and Tucker Carlson's favorite racial “scientist” (eugenicist), Charles Murray. Dave from Jamaica calls in to highlight the violent ridiculousness of relying on IQ, drawing direct parallels to those that see a correlation between ejaculatory capabilities and intelligence, before he jumps into the discussion of Andrew Yang's property-over-people politics and the pro-police panic setting in amid misleading statistics from major cities. Then, the crew watches Dave Rubin compare the lack of an existential threat due to climate change to the lack of an existential threat in… Armageddon, and, after a little sports talk, Phil from Chicago calls in to discuss the threat the Thacker Pass project poses to indigenous communities in NV, plus, your calls and IMs!

Juneteenth refers to June 19, 1865, when U.S. Army Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced that slavery was over in the state. Juneteenth is now celebrated across the U.S. We look at the history of emancipation and the ongoing conversation on the legacy of slavery in the U.S.
The Thirteenth Amendment (Amendment XIII) to the United States Constitution abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. The amendment was passed by Congress on January 31, 1865 and ratified by the required 27 of the then 36 states on December 6, 1865 and proclaimed on December 18. It was the first of the three Reconstruction Amendments adopted following the American Civil War. President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, issued on January 1, 1863, declared that the enslaved in Confederate-controlled areas were free. When they escaped to Union lines or federal forces—including now-former slaves—advanced south, emancipation occurred without any compensation to the former owners. Texas was the last Confederate territory reached by the Union army. On June 19, 1865—Juneteenth—U.S. Army general Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, to proclaim the war had ended and so had slavery. In the slave-owning areas controlled by Union forces on January 1, 1863, state action was used to abolish slavery. The exceptions were Kentucky and Delaware where slavery was finally ended by the Thirteenth Amendment in December 1865. In contrast to the other Reconstruction Amendments, the Thirteenth Amendment has rarely been cited in case law but has been used to strike down peonage and some race-based discrimination as "badges and incidents of slavery". The Thirteenth Amendment has also been invoked to empower Congress to make laws against modern forms of slavery, such as sex trafficking. Since 1804, states had divided into states that allowed or states that prohibited slavery. Slavery was implicitly recognized in the original Constitution in provisions such as Article I, Section 2, Clause 3, commonly known as the Three-Fifths Compromise, which provided that three-fifths of each state's enslaved population (“other persons”) was to be added to its free population for the purposes of apportioning seats in the United States House of Representatives and direct taxes among the states. Though three million Confederate slaves were in fact freed by Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, their post-war status was uncertain. To ensure the abolition was beyond legal challenge, an amendment to the Constitution to that effect was initiated. On April 8, 1864, the Senate passed an amendment to abolish slavery. After one unsuccessful vote and extensive legislative maneuvering by the Lincoln administration, the House followed suit on January 31, 1865. The measure was swiftly ratified by nearly all Northern states, along with a sufficient number of border states (slave states not part of the Confederacy) up to the assassination of President Lincoln. However, the approval came via his successor, President Andrew Johnson, who encouraged the "reconstructed" Southern states of Alabama, North Carolina, and Georgia to agree, which brought the count to 27 states, leading to its adoption before the end of 1865. Though the Amendment abolished slavery throughout the United States, some Black Americans, particularly in the South, were subjected to other forms of involuntary labor, such as under the Black Codes, as well as subjected to white supremacist violence, and selective enforcement of statutes, besides other disabilities. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/law-school/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/law-school/support

Its Juneteenth! Its the first day of the official Mask requirement in Montgomery County and its "Wear RED Day" for our Military! Black Americans began to celebrate Juneteenth in honor of the day Texas - the last rebel state - officially abolished slavery. On June 19, 1865, Union Major Gen. Gordon Granger and his regiment rode into Galveston, Texas, with news the Civil War had ended and that the state's more than 250,000 enslaved people were now free. It was more than two years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation – which went into effect on January 1, 1863 – and nearly six months after the 13th Amendment was passed by Congress officially abolishing slavery in the United States. Its also the first day of the Mayor of Montgomery's Executive Order for Masks in groups of 10 or more. Its for our protection, not politics but for practical protection. Its also "Wear RED Day" to show your support for our Military. Rev. Rose H.
