Happy Juneteenth!
Given the nature of what we do, we generally follow the same calendar as the U.S. stock market, posting articles on the days the market is open for business.
But we do make an exception and post articles on a handful of uniquely American holidays. Our favorite by far is Thanksgiving, which we celebrate over the course of the entire week with articles related to the holiday and the day after it. We also mark the Fourth of July, but typically on just the day itself.
In 2021, Juneteenth became a federal holiday, and thus also a holiday for the U.S. stock market. But before that, it wasn’t anything close to a holiday celebrated across the United States by a majority of Americans.
Before 2021, it was mostly a regional holiday, most often celebrated in states that were part of the Confederacy during the U.S. Civil War by Americans who had been slaves up until the end of the conflict and by their descendants.
That pre-federal holiday history has a story all its own, which the Texas Institute for the Preservation of History and Culture told in a two part video series it posted on YouTube back in 2010. Their interest makes sense because Texas is the point of origin for what is now the national Juneteenth holiday. Here’s Part 1:
Here’s Part 2:
The day marking the true end of the practice of slavery in the United States is a day worth celebrating. It took much longer and cost more in suffering and blood than it should have, but when it finally came, it marked the fulfillment of a process and promise that began with the framing of the U.S. Constitution.
