Description
Enslaved communities in Texas finally learned that they were free a full two years after the Emancipation Proclamation and the end of the Civil War. That day, June 19, 1865, has been commemorated as Juneteenth ever since in the Black community, and in 2021 it was declared a federal holiday. Support the National Museum of African American History and Culture with a design pattern that honors Juneteenth with this versatile cotton bandana.
