And it's not a matter of who's "turn" it is, there are no turns. Our goal, or at least what it should be is to create equal opportunities for everyone, not a divisive "us vs them" kind of dynamic

I'm not against it I'm just pissed at how things are you guys are being used and still don't see it.
Children's day, actually celebrate the seasons changing like equinoxes and solstices, a vacation day where everyone gets a day off. EVERYONE! A family day where it's about being with ur family other than Thanksgiving or Christmas. A sleep day where everyone gets to sleep 3 extra hrs and stores n shit open 3 or 4 hrs later than normal.
I just feel that if they're gunna create a new holiday it should be something a lot of people would want and care about today. The slaves been freed happened forever ago and many people don't want reminders of the past around like the statues so why remember this stuff? It's not like people ACTUALLY celebrate mlk day and actually do something for that.
iseekpinetrees I could be wrong, this is the thought process of a white woman that barely understands people of color. Avoiding the topic of race doesn't make it better. It only makes you feel better.
Not avoiding it just didn't name off how we could have holidays about other races as well. Black and white aren't the only races in America. There's 5 all together and not all 5 are celebrated
Nope, now you are a slave everyday except Juneteenth. We’re taking you off the payroll. Don’t feel down in the dumps pal, you always can work on Juneteenth for a stipend… Apparently you aren’t a slave on that day.

Dude, unless you're gonna make Bruce Wayne black, then BatWing is the black batman.
I thought it was already, I've seen it on my calendar a few times already. It's good that now it's official

It’s about time! And it needs to replace Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a white holiday and racist. The first settlers had slaves doing the work.
From the government's perspective, how much will this day of holiday cost?
Is it a good thing for those on zero hour contracts?
about damn time. and it happened under a DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT
Yeah, republicans, I dont think TRUMP WOULD HAVE EVER DONE IT, BECAUSE he's NOT ONLY A RACIST, he's a "REPUBLICAN"
Didn’t he call for it to be made a holiday last year?
nope
And even if he did. Why was it never introduced to congress until this year?
Why didn't obama bring it up?
fuck Juneteenth you racist pos

I have no problem with celebrating Juneteenth but that is a stupid fucking name for a holiday.
You already have all of the same rights as Hispanics and Asians and whites.
LMBO. The name does suck. 😂😂😂😂
@Hispanic-Cool-Guy ok, it is a little odd but I will accept it in the spirit of unity with my fellow Americans
Another day for Gov't employees not to work and get paid, like most other days they don't work.
Just another dumb holiday that companies have to pay for for people to stay home and raise inflation more
Kinda stupid. It makes sense but come on... there's better things we could make a holiday for.
So you racist?
@big-black-robinson. Everything is racist, right?
What better holiday can we makeup then
You tell me right now nigga
Such as?

Singles day a day where singles wear a color and go to singles events all over town and non single people can go to couples events.
Like all single people wear red and couples wear white.

Juneteenth has been around but it's been a couple years since it got mainstream I guess.
You know it's not just a holiday for black people, right?
You cry babies get yet another expensive concession.
Quit troilling, kiddo. You know it's nothing much.
How about you go fuck your racist self?
Finally I can stop being a slave!!
Yes sir. We almost free.
I can hardly wait to get my first paycheck.

@BeMuse
It's OK, because I mostly just sell crack and do home invasions on the side. I'm thinking about getting me a new car late tonight.
Do we get the day off from work?
Doesn’t affect my life at all.
Yes. I think it's nice.
How much will you be paid for your day off
