I like her humor, lol and it's great to make this a National Holiday or a celebration thru-out the rest of the country. As for the time of true emancipation, yes it took time after the war to get things in order. After all, all bills and rights and even court orders take months, so I don't get the point of this video. Btw I don't need to celebrate it, I'm not African American, just like when they celebrate anything else. I don't need to be a part of it but of course, I will recognize it. Then again if I find myself involved that great too! I've always been moved from this part of America's history and yes it's been a long road to freedom for the African American. I hope and pray you learn from history and the mistakes. After all, we are all human and we need unity to keep the peace and the pursuit of happiness. Now Let's keep America great and continue success. There is much work to do. Don't get in the way be part of the human race!
My own people dissin' my state. 😞
I’ll be honest I didn’t know about it until I moved to Memphis.
Que Dulcé 🙂
People like Trevor Noah wil never have a sensible guy like Coleman Hughes on his show.
HOPE: Republican Voters Against Donald Trump https://rvat.org/
I mean if it gets me a day off I think any day should be a holiday to get you a day off
Idk who Kevin is or why he works there other than to get blamed for everything 😂
We need to have more Dulsayin! I live it. Juneteenth is cool but what has been accomplished. We're ALL still slaves and viewed as less than by society. Sorry but these are facts otherwise there wouldn't be riots. It's more like a day of ethnic expressionism.
Greetings from Germany, thanks for the information! I'm interested in US-american culture for years but have never heard of Juneteenth. It's always time to learn something new 🙂
Pure BS.
I'm from Asia and even I've heard of Juneteenth….
There are balck people who dont k ow what juneteenth is
I have honestly been shocked that there are so many who didn't know about Juneteenth. I grew up in a pretty racist area of Texas and it was just like the wall paper in the kitchen. Maybe we knew about it because it involved Texas, or maybe we knew about it because it was scorned(I can't remember direct words/situations), but racism was also like the wallpaper in the kitchen(thankfully not MY kitchen growing up).
Why should people know about June 19 this is black people
dul-sayin is a GREAT new format, PLEASE keep it, i finally get to like her but now immediately REALLY liking her! =)
INTERESTING!!! My friends…………Jesus is coming back, and he wants to take
you with him! Please be kind to everyone. Don’t purposefully hurt
others, do not steal, nor kill, nor have sex outside of marriage or have
sex before marriage. Do not practice witchcraft as it opens demonic
doors that you need God to shut. Do not watch pornography. Do not lie or
be envious or jealous of others. Seek God and ask him to forgive you of
your wrongs in life and then stop doing the bad things. If you do not
know what bad things are, read Exodus 20 and be holy. God is so worth
getting to know. He created you for great things! You’ll be amazed at
the number of angels he has protecting you right now. Seek him by
reading the bible, like Psalms 103, so you can see how King David loved
him. Love ya!
I'm an old white man. I don't know when or how I learned about Juneteenth, but I've known about it for years. Yeah, it hasn't been prominently spoken about, but you just need some curiosity about the larger world to learn all kinds of interesting and useful things. Turn off pop culture and start reading real books. If you're white, start reading books (novels, essays, poetry) by people of color.
Slavery didn't end until 2013 in Mississippi 😂🤷🏾♂️
There was a lot of stuff that didn't get taught when I was in school. It was a White curriculum in a gerrymandered school district. But I can tell you one thing, it wasn't Trump who enlightened me. I googled Juneteenth and enlightened myself.
Juneteenth is on the calendar and has been for a long time! Just took a Google when it showed up on the phone calendar.
Loved it! First time she's funny
Yey
As a native Texan I’m glad the rest of the nation catchin up
Should thanks Trump for making more people aware of Juneteenth
I find it shameful we can't even make a day for it.
Just a little fact checking reveals that what we are told is false. On June 2 1945 pres. Jackson signed proclamation of the end of the war after confederate forces surrendered to Gen. Grant at Appomatox. Gen Grainger had been replaced after the battle of chickeroga.
why no mention of Ralph Ellison's "Juneteenth"? please address this, he deserves it.
Why didnt we ever hear about Juneteenth during 8 years of Obama. NOBODY has ever talked about Juneteenth. Besides, slavery kept going for a couple more years after Juneteenth in the North. And can't anyone see how calling it Juneteenth is another jab at black education levels by white leftists? NOT ONE MENTION of Juneteenth in the last 10 years anyone can find. Be honest. Did YOU know it was a thing? PS Trump has TONS of supporters who aren't white. You're being lied to.
