#OTD in 1865, General Granger announced General Order #3 proclaiming freedom to those enslaved in Texas. This order informed slaves they were free via Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation made two years prior in 1863. Today, we remember Juneteenth and celebrate freedom together. https://t.co/A00GuwKTGn — PolitiTweet.org
