Juneteenth is our newest national holiday! It celebrates the day that enslaved people in Texas were set free. For many it is the equivalent to Independence day for Black people.
Apex is a gentrified town outside of Raleigh. This was their first Juneteenth celebration.
With face painting,
dancing, and more.
The Apex police department was there along with Black Lives Matter. Everyone had a good time.
Well worth celebrating.
