Description
"On June 19, 1865, slaves gathered around a Union soldier and listened as he read the most remarkable words they would ever hear. They were no longer enslaved: they were free. Their joyous celebration of freedom would become a holiday--Juneteenth--that is observed each year by more and more Americans"--,Provided by publisher.
