Description
The day that changed it all for those in bondage on Galveston Island had begun as a Monday like any other. But once the proclamation of General Order No. 3 came, June 19th 1865 was forever transformed into a jubilee day, one all freedom-loving people continue to celebrate throughout the world. "Juneteenth: This Day Was Made for You and Me" chronicles the history of that Texas proclamation along with a remembrance of the cost paid by so many to expand liberty's reach throughout the land. As decades' long champions of Juneteenth themselves say, "Juneteenth is [for] everyone." Come and celebrate this jubilee day!
