Mesa Rumi's birthday, June 19.
"Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day[1] , Jublilee Day[2], Cel-Liberation Day[3] or the Black Fourth of July[3], is an American holiday that commemorates June 19, 1865
.[4] On this day, after almost two and half years since the implementation of the Emancipation Proclamation, enslaved African Americans were informed of their liberation from the slavery present in the former Confederate States of America.[5] Texas was the most remote of the slave states, and the Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 1863, was not enforced there until after the Civil War had ended.[5] The name of the observance is a portmanteau of "June" and "nineteenth", the date of its celebration."
