Pretty broad stroke you're painting with there, bud. Especially considering some of those named actually were all for it, save for changing the name to Emancipation Day rather than dividing Independence Day along racial lines... you know, trying to unite the country... you know, like real Americans who... you know, actually like this country.

So (non-Texans) ,how old were you when you first heard about Juneteenth ?

We already have Independence Day so now they are merging the name Independence Day to Juneteenth National Independence Day.
I remember when Obama told people to be careful showing too much pride during Independence Day but now here we are.

This. Most miscers probably work for jobs that don’t give them holidays off though. An extra day off or of vacation( if mandated in) is always good.

Why shouldn't celebration of independence be around the same time as the celebration of independence?

I don't see how you can oppose this in good faith. And that's because you don't oppose it in good faith. Some of you are actually just racists, unfortunately.

BLM is “protesting” a huge problem? The handful of blacks killed by police unjustly?

It’s more like forcing everyone to talk about a rare disease in the community while ignoring the major ones killing scores more because it’s politically inconvenient.

And with BLM, the policies they advocate just end up with more blacks getting killed by the real culprit behind their genocide.

I don't know about you, but any measure that can potentially give me an additional PTO day from work is an issue that matters.

TBH, I had no idea the day existed or what it meant until people started making a big deal about it last year. It must be an east coast thing.

There was a group called the "Dixiecrats" that were a sect of the democratic party (kinda how Bernie is a "socalist" but still hangs out with the democrats) who were fixated on to the hardcore racism/pro slavery movement.They were kicked out of the party and a good number of them unfortunately fled to the republican party.

Essentially they were the loudest mouths in the democratic party at the time, so thats what the 19th centruy democrats are known for (Dixiecrat ideaologies)....essentially like AOC and Bernie in present day.

Did you just not know how to posts these in the same post dumb Dave? or did you think of that second genius post right after?

We shouldn't dwell on it, but to ignore it and pretend everything is ok when it clearly isn't is also dumb.

Lincoln got a lot of grief at the time, freeing people he could not free.

The Copperhead Press had a field day.
“From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be rememberèd—
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me

Slavery ended, but white supremacists never stopped wanting to have control over black people as evidenced by this thread.
