Juneteenth — a combination of the words June and 19th — is a celebration of the date in 1865 when slaves in Galveston, Texas, learned they’d been emancipated a full year before. And while the holiday’s roots lie in the Lone Star State, observances tend to focus on the end of slavery overall. In the second year since Congress voted to make Juneteenth a federal holiday, Americans are celebrating throughout the country, from Brooklyn, New York, to Fargo, North Dakota.
