Juneteenth
or Freedom Day was celebrated Friday evening at Scully Park in
Lincoln. Approximately 150 people came together in a celebration
recognizing the official anniversary of the end of slavery in
America. Several people spoke, including local retired pastor and
community leader Glenn Shelton.
On June 19th, 1865, word finally reached Galveston, Texas that
slavery had been abolished and that all men and women of color were
free from their bondage. African American Freedom Day is something
that is not widely talked about or celebrated in the United States,
an issue many local community leaders plan to change.
