A New Holiday
Manage episode 295577235 series 2816013
Happy Juneteenth! The Docs reflect on what it means for Juneteenth to be declared a new national holiday!
Juneteenth - also known as Jubilee Day, Emancipation Day, Freedom Day, and Black Independence Day - 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 has spread across the United States and beyond.
On June 17, 2021, President Joe Biden signed the bill making Juneteenth the eleventh American federal holiday and the first to obtain legal observance as a federal holiday since Martin Luther King Jr. Day was designated in 1983. This has been controversial for many different reasons - the Docs weigh in with their own reactions.
