El 19 de junio de 1865, un grupo de hombres, mujeres y niños esclavizados en Texas se reunió en torno a un soldado de la Unión y escuchó las palabras más memorables que jamás escucharían. Eran libres. Esta noticia fue motivo de celebración, así que bailaron y lloraron de alegría. No lo sabían entonces, pero su celebración de la libertad se convertiría en una festividad —Juneteenth—, celebrada cada año por más estadounidenses.

English Translation

What is Juneteenth?

On June 19, 1865, a group of enslaved men, women, and children in Texas gathered around a Union soldier and listened as he read the most remarkable words they would ever hear. They were free. This news was cause for celebration, so they danced, and wept joyfully. They did not know it then, but their celebration of freedom would become a holiday—Juneteenth—observed by more and more Americans each year.
