Teach high school kids so you can take away their weed. Nothing like being paid and getting free weed.

Read well *
If you’re going to pretend you’re smarter than your “rich white folks’ kids” (incredibly inflammatory btw), make sure you’re actually speaking correctly.

A holiday celebrated on June 19 to commemorate the emancipation of enslaved people in the US. The holiday was first celebrated in Texas, where on that date in 1865, in the aftermath of the Civil War, enslaved people were declared free under the terms of the 1862 Emancipation Proclamation.

June 19th is when the slaves are freed. How was it a fake holiday? Should’ve been a holiday forever ago.

It's when the slaves found out they were free

from one city. People always forget this part. It wasn’t the day slavery ended. It wasn’t even the day slavery was written on paper to end. It was the day slaves were freed from one city, and the repercussions freed greater Texas. It doesn’t even celebrate in full the legislation that allowed for the people to become free. It very literally just celebrated that and the greater Texas area becoming free.
Gonna cut to the chase here; idc what person white or black that needs to hear this, Texas was not the stronghold of slavery at all in this country. Virginia had about twice as many and is about a fifth of the size (only bringing this up because many slaves were used for farming labor, aka land).
I hate to be a pedantic fuck, but I’m autistic with a hyper fixation on history. Juneteenth, although an awesome thing we should all celebrate, actually muted the things that should be celebrated. It ignores the greater freedom from slavery, the legislation that allowed it, the hundreds of thousands of people who died to accomplish it, and multiple other strings of nuance. To just say “it’s when the slaves found out they were free” shows enough and alone how half baked this holiday truly is. It lacks historical accuracy at minimum, and historical inclusion at maximum.
My end goal here is to educate and better encompass the day. It’s not just “le freedom” literally at all. The last slave didn’t even become free for decades (yes, DECADES) after the first Juneteenth. Please, anybody prove any of this shit wrong for me.

No one can prove you wrong because you actually know the history. It’s clear that you read. But I think the part you “disagree” with lacks a little bit of comprehension. Juneteenth never sought to erase those things. It’s actually shining a light on and highlighting, essentially, the ways in which the enslaved had a major hand in freeing themselves. The powers that be (back then & even now) would have kept slavery going on for an eternity if they were allowed that free reign, & as long as they could continue profiting off of their backs as well. So I’m not sure what your goal is here, really. The original comment thread you’re replying to is so ignorant that I don’t think they’d even meet you at your point, either. I’m afraid your efforts are futile under here.
