How Do WE Celebrate Juneteenth? (with Dr. Darryl)
b'
Juneteenth is the celebration the emancipation of enslaved people in the US. The Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1862, but it didn\\u2019t make its way to Texas until 1865. In this episode, Steph and Beth are joined by Dr. Darryl Scriven who shares his personal experience as an African American learning about and celebrating Juneteenth. We talk about the importance of understanding our history when it comes to the enslavement of people and why the end of enslavement is something we can all celebrate. NOTE: At the time this episode was recorded, Juneteenth had not yet been recognized as a federal holiday. To read about the law changing that (effective June 17, 2021), see the link in the show notes.
