From 1865 to Today: The Evolving Legacy of Juneteenth Let's talk about Juneteenth, a day that marks a pivotal moment in American history. Since becoming a federal holiday in 2021, Juneteenth has sparked conversations and celebrations nationwide. But why is this day so significant? Juneteenth, a blend of "June" and "nineteenth," commemorates June 19, 1865, the day when Union soldiers brought the long-awaited news of freedom to enslaved people in Texas — two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. It's a stark reminder of the resilience and strength of those who fought for liberty. Today, Juneteenth is more than a historical date, and we recognize it by supporting Black-owned businesses, listening to Black voices, and educating ourselves about the significance of Juneteenth.

What we currently know as Black History Month started as Black History Week. This was brought into existence through the invaluable contributions of Carter G. Woodson, a renowned figure. In 1915, he initiated the foundation of 'The Association for the Study of African American Life and History,' previously known under the title 'The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History.' A year later, developing upon his remarkable efforts, he introduced 'the Journal of Negro History', which is presently recognized as 'the Journal of African American History'. #blackhistorymonth #cartergwoodson #blackhistoryweek #africanamericanhistory #blackhistory #associationforthestudyofafricanamericanlifeandhistory #journalofafricanamericanhistory
