thank you for the article on the juneteenth holiday. in my formative years, we were told that juneteenth was a celebration not meant for "us." that says tons about the lack of Black history education in my generation - it's encouraging and inspiring to see the holiday getting "shout outs" which in turn signals its growing significance in American culture.
