Juneteenth commemorates the official end of slavery in the United States on June 19th, 1865 when the last of our enslaved ancestors were emancipated in Texas. This day is officially observed in 45 states. Jawnteenth is an event by BLM Philly to honor Juneteenth and make it a day of reflection & joy.
