Juneteenth Federal Holidays=Bank Holiday?

[3Ts]

Actually there are 3 days. Emancipation day Jan 1st 1863, June 19th 1865 and the ratification of the 13 amendment on December 6th 1865.

I had never actually heard of Juneteenth until about a week ago or so. I had always considered the Jan 1st 1863 as the correct date.

And the Emancipation Proclamation only freed the slaves in the south. 1 Facts: The Emancipation Proclamation | American Battlefield Trust

I heard they are changing the name of 'Cracker Jacks' to "Caucasian Jacks"...!

I heard Blackjack is changing to African American Jack.

I heard Blackjack is changing to African American Jack.

The N.A. movement will be all over that...considering they own half the deck...

I did hear that the 'Washington Redskins' are going to drop the "Washington" part of their name though because what is represents is so embarrassing...this may have the N.A. movement in a happy mood...
