There are some wonderful photos and stories here, salute to the people at Texas Highways for putting this together.

From the article:

"The day was dubbed Emancipation Day but, slowly, the term Juneteenth — a portmanteau of June and 19th — took hold."

Debating the name instead of appreciating the holiday and gravity of the topic is missing the forrest for the trees. Just wow.
