Interestingly, this holiday began in 1865--more than two years after President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation. News spread much slower back then, and when slaves in Texas finally learned of their freedom, the holiday was born. In this book, readers are given an in-depth look at the history of Juneteenth, including the events leading up to its creation. Readers will love learning about how this important moment in U.S. history is celebrated each year"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Includes index. 505 0 $a June 19th -- The American Civil War -- The Emancipation Proclamation -- Lee's surrender -- Juneteenth! -- A forgotten holiday -- Celebrating today. 650 0 $a Juneteenth $x History $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Slaves $x Emancipation $z Texas $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Slaves $x Emancipation $z United States $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a African Americans $x Social life and customs $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Holidays $z United States $x History. 650 0 $a History. 650 0 $a Juvenile works. 941 $a 4 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230902014337.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909062939.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722063358.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20210504015546.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D34735D0AC9F11EBAF53C5C920ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
