22 Must-Read Juneteenth Children's Books to Celebrate and Teach

Juneteenth, a jubilant celebration of freedom and resilience, holds a significant place in American history and black history. Commemorating the emancipation of enslaved African Americans, this national holiday marks the day—June 19th, 1865—when Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas, to announce the end of slavery, nearly two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation had been issued by President Abraham Lincoln.
