[QUOTE="KPRC2, post: 41563, member: 148"] Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, symbolizes the end of slavery in America. This year marks the 156th anniversary of Juneteenth. On June 19, 1865, Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston and declared that all enslaved people were emancipated by General Order No. 3. This announcement came more than two years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. Granger’s declaration led to the freedom of more than 250,000 enslaved Texans.
