DESCRIPTION:

At the end of the Civil War, though slavery was technically illegal in all states, it still persisted in the last bastions of the Confederacy. This was the case when Union General Gordon Granger marched his troops into Galveston, Texas on June 19th and announced that all enslaved people there were officially free.

Watch this video and get to know the history of Juneteenth, the commemoration of the end of slavery in the United States after the Civil War.

The truth always wins.
