“Juneteenth provides each of us an opportunity for pause and reflection. As we mark the commemoration of the end of slavery in the United States, which became official in all states on June 19, 1865, let us reflect on the words of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., ‘Make a career of humanity. Commit yourself to the noble struggle for equal rights. You will make a better person of yourself, a greater nation of your country, and a finer world to live in.’ As we look forward to celebrating Juneteenth, I ask everyone to mark this day by learning more about the day, why it’s an important part of our history, and what each of us can do to fulfill the hope promised on that day in 1865.” — President Bashar Hanna #Juneteenth #FreedomDay https://www.instagram.com/p/Ce--i8XOWei/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In honor of Juneteenth.
On June 19, 1865, federal orders were read in Galveston, Texas announcing the emancipation of all remaining enslaved persons in the confederacy. Though formally freed two years earlier by the emancipation proclamation of 1863, word didn't reach Texas due in part to its remote location, and by the lack of Union troops present to enforce the proclamation. This image by artist Thomas Nast was originally published in "Harper's Weekly" on January 24, 1863 and depicts a series of scenes contrasting African American life before and after emancipation.

General Order No. 3, issued by Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger, 6/19/1865m 1865. NARA ID 182778372.

WE HONOR JUNETEENTH
#OTD 1865, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation, Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger issued General Order No. 3, informing the people of Texas that all enslaved people were now free. Texans were the last Americans to be informed that all formerly enslaved persons were now free.
This day became known Juneteenth, a combination of June and 19th, and it's the oldest known celebration commemorating the end of slavery in the United States. On June 17, 2021, President Joe Biden signed a bill into law establishing Juneteenth as a federal holiday.
Excerpt from General Order #3:
“The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor."
