"Fortino" has been working Chatueau Chateau Ste Michelle winery for 19 years. He's proud of his union contract where #juneteenth is a paid holiday. If he works today he'll get 8 hours plus what he earns. "I'm proud to work at a company with such respect for people." #WeFeedYou

Today is #Juneteenth. Many people outside of #Texas haven’t heard of it, even though it is a federal holiday signed by Pres Biden. Most people will say Juneteenth marks June 19, 1865, the day Union Army General Gordon #Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced General Order No. 3, which freed the last enslaved African Americans. Technically true, but Granger didn’t free the slaves, they were already free, this was two years *after* the #Emancipation Proclamation. Granger showed up to tell white folks they had to follow the law. Black folks already knew the South had lost, they’d seen the newspapers. It’s been 161 years since that day. We haven’t made nearly enough progress in equality, have we? https://nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stories/what-juneteenth (NMAAHC) https://www.journal-isms.com/media-version-of-juneteenths-origin-is-a-myth/ (lots of links in this listicle) https://www.texasmonthly.com/being-texan/real-history-of-juneteenth-messier/(may have paywall for non subscribers)

Juneteenth NaClKnight 🧂⚔️🥊 @NaClKnight@c.im · Jun 19, 2026

But fr fr tho, #Juneteenth is the distinctly Black American holiday because America's history is distinctly black. The country's never fully reckoned with slavery or accepted our liberation. Even Juneteenth is a correction to injustice, a celebration of long overdue Black liberation from captivity that persisted in the South past the Civil War. Some much of American, especially modern American history is predicated on ignoring or hiding Black history. Making it a federal holiday forces that conversation. I like that some white people get mad about Juneteenth or don't understand it or think it's made up. It's useful for learning who to avoid.

“Human beings, regardless of their race, want to live their lives without restriction. Juneteenth is about a spirit of renewal that celebrates freedom and opportunity.” To understand Juneteenth, one must visit Galveston, its birthplace: https://www.texasobserver.org/a-visit-to-galveston-the-birthplace-of-juneteenth/ #Juneteenth #Texas #GulfCoast #history

On June 19, 1865, Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas and announced that more than 250,000 enslaved Black people were free, two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. That day became Juneteenth: America's second Independence Day. A celebration of freedom, resilience, and the ongoing journey toward true equality. Take a little time today to learn the history behind it: 📚 Smithsonian NMAAHC — The Historical Legacy of Juneteenth https://nmaahc.si.edu/explore/stories/historical-legacy-juneteenth 🏛️ Library of Congress — Juneteenth Fact Sheet https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/R44865 🗞️ Smithsonian Magazine — Juneteenth: Our Other Independence Day https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/juneteenth-our-other-independence-day-16340952/ #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #Juneteenth2026

(re-posted from 2023) I asked why the library didn't have a #Juneteenth holiday. The response was "It's not one in the policy manual." I wrote to the trustees, they put it on the agenda, voted unanimously for it, and now it's a library holiday. When we talk about white supremacy and libraries, think about how a group of well-meaning but ultimately non-proactive trustees (and director) just kind of... didn't think about this for two years, just never put it on the agenda. That's how it works.
