Freedom Finally Proclaimed

The History Behind Juneteenth


Juneteenth—combining “June” and “nineteenth”—commemorates the day Union General Gordon Granger issued General Order No. 3 in Galveston, Texas, declaring all enslaved people free.


Although the Emancipation Proclamation took effect in 1863, enforcement did not reach Texas until 1865. Juneteenth marks the moment freedom was finally proclaimed and enforced nationwide.

By honoring this history and wearing Juneteenth apparel, we ensure these stories are never forgotten.
