Juneteenth Celebrated In Cities Across America
GALVESTON, TX - JUNE 19: People pose in front of the statue of former Texas Representative Al Edwards, who sponsored the legislation making Juneteenth a state holiday in 1979 at historic Ashton Villa, where emancipation of the slaves was announced in 1865, on June 19, 2020 in Galveston, Texas. Juneteenth commemorates June 19, 1865, when a Union general read orders in Galveston, Texas stating all enslaved people in Texas were free according to federal law.
