Get to know the history of Juneteenth, a commemoration of the end of slavery in the United States after the Civil War.
—
At the end of the Civil War, though slavery was technically illegal in all states, it still persisted in the last bastions of the Confederacy. This was the case when Union General Gordon Granger marched his troops into Galveston, Texas on June 19th and announced that all enslaved people there were officially free. Karlos K. Hill and Soraya Field Fiorio dig into the history of Juneteenth.
Lesson by Karlos K. Hill and Soraya Field Fiorio, directed by Rémi Cans, Atypicalist.

Great art style! Every still image could be turned into a fabulous mural or poster in someone’s classroom
Man lots of triggered people here
At 1:02 there are 55 stars on the American flag. Really? 🤔
Slavery was illegal in Texas while it was part of Mexico, once it's population "chose" join the U.S. it became legal again.
No forced labour in XinJiang cotton field. Forced labour in US cotton field.
They should have let Africa flourish in peace, find their ways in peace. The world would have been a better place.
I'm actually going to celebrate this year freeekin liberals!
Animation is topnotch as always! The background music on this one seriously gave me goosebumps. Suspenseful like the slaves' march towards their freedom. Thanks for another amazing lesson, TedEd
Request: please re-start the history vs series.
I really feel left aside hearing and seeing several testimonies from people on profits they make from Bitcoin/Forex Investment. Can someone recommend a good expert that trade on my behalf and generate profit for me
would they opt to enslave if they had robots like that t800 from movies?

I rarely watch a youtube video more than once, but I just rewatched this. Brilliant work, TED-Ed! The score, the animation, and the info. Absolutely stellar presentation! Don't let the dislikes discourage you. This is some of the best work I've seen!
Sorry.This is the day that is known forever as the death of Tony Soprano.
Move this day to the end of the Civil War,the day that brought slavery to an end in the USA.
It's not, very few care and those who do will only get hurt by it. Shame on your for selling out to the elites.
Tysm for always educating us❤️ BLM✊️
Thank you TedEd.
Juneteenth is my birthday !!! 😀
Can you guys upload about the phases of moon?

Don't tell DeSantis.
Honestly, I thought it should be called Emancipation Day.
