## Caption

On June 19, 1865, the end of the American Civil War was announced in Texas. This became known as Juneteenth, the date we celebrate as the end of slavery. However, the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery and the end of slavery in US territories came later. In addition, Jim Crow laws (local laws enforcing racial segregation in the South) and other practices have limited the freedom of Black Americans. 

This Juneteenth, we celebrate Black lives and recommit ourselves to creating an equitable society for all. However you observe today, we've gathered stories to watch to reflect and educate ourselves on the historical context for racism, freedom, and the long shadow of slavery in the U.S. Link in bio.
