Despite push, states slow to make Juneteenth a paid holiday

Recognition of Juneteenth, the effective end of slavery in the U.S., gained traction after the police killing of George Floyd in 2020. Although almost every state recognizes Juneteenth in some fashion, many have been slow to do more than issue a proclamation or resolution, even as some continue...

It is already a fading holiday. People care more about fathers day then this day. It is not even the correct end of slavery. the end of slavery was when the 13th amendment was signed.

Juneteenth is a day on which nothing whatsoever happened. It's pretty hard to find something to celebrate.

It's no accident that "Juneteenth" is a replacement to father's day in the black community.

Juneteenth. Another fake made up "holiday" like Kwaanzaa?

Even my spell-checker doesn't know the word!

They are clueless, but we see again what happens when the lowest common denominators get to push or run things.

But! They do serve watermelon, among other foods, on Juneteenth.

Nothing is faker than Kwanza, made up by a black FBI informant.

The rest of us have to work harder because of that day. If Lincoln had his way and sent all the ex-slaves to Liberia we would have a lot less problems.

Juneteenth makes more sense as primarily a Texas holiday, which is how it was and celebrated accordingly in the black community (but not limited to blacks as all can appreciate the milestone that took place in Galveston, Texas on June 19).

The Passage of Amendment XIII would make sense as a Federal holiday. The official proclamation was on December 18. Granted, it's close to Christmas, but I don't care, call it an early Christmas present to the black community, and a better holiday to celebrate than Kwanzaa.

I'll wear my somewhat tattered Juneteenth t-shirt on June 19 regardless.

Happy Juneteenth for those who wish to celebrate. And if you don't, enjoy your Sunday anyway. Go break bread with someone. Be kind, be courteous, won't cost you anything to do so. Let freedom reign.

Black father? Isn't that an oxymoron?

But no seriously. F those nwords.

My bank is closed on Juneteenth.

I support holidays.

We need more holidays.

That's low.

Come on... that's low.

We need more active black father's to participate in their childrens' lives. Let's encourage them. They can celebrate both holidays at the same time.

When I was growing up I was envious of the girl next door who had a Jewish father and a. Catholic mother, she used to get presents on Christmas AND Hannukah, for like two whole weeks.

I think maybe Juneteenth could be the Saturday and Daddy's Day could be the Sunday, that way black father's get the weekend off to spend with their kids. Any active father deserves that, don't you think?

A "active" black father is one that found him a new baby momma.
