jaekl Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I just noticed in on my calendar too and looked it up earlier today. Not recognized in PA. You would think it would be made into a more significant day. Maybe not June 19th but some day during the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - "Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. From its Galveston, Texas origin in 1865, the observance of June 19th as the African American Emancipation Day." Been around for 143 years???
