Texas. origin in 1865. the observance of June 19 is considered the African American Emancipation Day even as it claimed a time frame in which African Americans were actually denied the knowledge of their freedom. Those in Texas did not hear of the declaration that President Lincoln made until 1865. Today Juneteenth commemorates. I believe. African American freedom and symbolically freedom around the world. And that is why in the beginning I stood and acknowledged this is World Refugee Day. for refugees are looking for freedom and hope. and they belong to us. and they are placed around the world. This special day of Juneteenth. however. emphasizes education and achievement. It is a day. a week. and in some areas a month marked with celebrations. guest speakers. picnics. and family gatherings.
