<div><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>What
is Juneteenth?</b> Juneteenth is often cited as
African-American Independence Day, a special<br>
day of recognition by many municipalities and
states. The observances commemorate June 19, 1865,
the day the Emancipation Proclamation was finally
enforced in Texas, the last of the seceding states
to be occupied by the federal army. At the time, an
estimated 250,000 persons were still enslaved in
Texas, despite the signing of the proclamation more
than two years earlier.<br>
