Description: "In the United States, Black people were enslaved for hundreds of years. In 1863, during the American Civil War, many enslaved people were freed. On June 19, 1865, enslaved people in Texas heard the news that they were free for the first time. On Juneteenth, people celebrate this day with parades, barbecues, protests, and other activities."--Publisher's description.
