OUSD Celebrates Juneteenth: Honoring Oakland’s Legacy of Freedom
As we celebrate Juneteenth on Friday, June 19, we honor a day of profound meaning for our city and nation. Juneteenth commemorates June 19, 1865, the date when freedom was finally granted to more than 250,000 enslaved Black Americans in Texas, the final people still in shackles, more than two years after President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation. That proclamation freed more than 3.5 million enslaved African Americans who were held in rebel states in the American South.
