What is Juneteenth? This is a holiday describing the end of slavery in a way for some. There was a time that some plantation owners gave certain freedoms to their slaves. Some saw ways to improve their standard of living and learned what it took to become free and learn to read and write for there were black schools even though they were well hidden, but for some learning gave them a chance to be FREE in a way. To be honest I am not sure about this for I was trying to remember from a program I remember watching a while ago. Juneteenth is kind of controversial depending on circumstances and what you may believe. We all need to feel free and to show understanding of all. The Lord Jesus made us all in his image whether black, white, red or yellow.
