However, in 1980, Juneteenth became an official state holiday in Texas because of Al Edwards, a Black state legislator, pushed for it. Now Juneteenth is back and better than ever! pic.twitter.com/IMJh0Km7Oj

In the 1900s, Juneteenth celebrations declined due to the lack of participants unless June 19th happened to fall on a holiday or weekend. Many people opted to celebrate the 4th of July as the sole independence day. pic.twitter.com/UXirumUpFN

One of the first documented Juneteenth celebrations was in Mexia, Texas, where a Juneteenth organization purchased the Booker T. Washington Park. In 1898, the park became the site for the Juneteenth celebration. pic.twitter.com/uTlZ27fH8q

Some festivities that occur on Juneteenth include fishing, barbecues, rodeos and baseball games. Juneteenth is also a celebration to educate and build power with the community; therefore, speakers and prayer services may also transpire. pic.twitter.com/9BcFPaNGua

It took two years for Texas to implement the Emancipation Proclamation due to the lack of Union troops to enforce it. Slave masters also deliberately withheld the news to maintain the labor force on the plantations until Granger and his troops forced legislation to change. pic.twitter.com/JWqb1HrG4d

On June 19, 1865, 2 years after Abraham Lincoln established the Emancipation Proclamation, Texas received notice from a Union troops general, General Gordon Granger, that the war ended and enslaved Black people were free. pic.twitter.com/5AHt1fWIoV
