Juneteenth

Philadelphia, PA, USA - June 23, 2018; It should be a national holiday, similar as when people dress up in flags for the Fourth of July, says Leighdy Morris, Queen of the RBG Brigade, ahead of participating in the annual Juneteenth parade in Center City Philadelphia, PA, on June 23, 2018. The Juneteenth Independence Day or Freedom Day commemorates the announcement of abolition of slavery on June 19, 1865.
