On This Day of June 19th 1865 ALL of the slaves were finally Freed. While the emancipation proclamation was a piece of paper that legally said all slaves were to be freed in January 1st 1863 it wasn't until Juneteenth (June 19th 1865) that the last slaves living in Texas were freed. So If the Independence Declaration was signed July 4th 1777, no blacks living in America were free, therefore blacks have nothing to celebrate on July 4th because our people were not free. Rather we should celebrate if anything Juneteenth. While many of us are still mentally enslaved we should take this time to analyze what other things don't we know about America's History and its continued oppression against all its people.
That is all.
