On today’s episode, which is the second of a four-part block titled #STCBlackHistorySeries, we’re going to look at the nature of the United States prior to the enforcement of this important form of legislation and where we are in today’s society. What is the Emancipation Proclamation? Why was this form of legislation established? How has this legislation shaped relations between the majority and minority cultures? What is the significance of Juneteenth to Black culture? Why is Juneteenth not celebrated as a national holiday in America? Is the Juneteenth celebration just as important as Black History Month?
