#Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when news of Emancipation finally reached enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, 2.5 years after the Emancipation Proclamation finally freed them. For 155 years, Juneteenth has been celebrated as the official end of slavery in the U.S. https://t.co/ckCTEEm7ur — PolitiTweet.org
