520 "Juneteenth has been touted as a national day celebrating
the end of slavery. Observances from coast to coast have
turned this event into part of the national conversation
about race, slavery, and how Americans understand,
acknowledge, and explain what has been called the national
'original sin.' But, why Juneteenth? Where did this
celebration--which promises to become a national holiday--
come from? What is the origin story? What are the facts,
and legends, around this important day in the nation's
history? This is the first scholarly book to delve into
the history behind Juneteenth. Using decades of research
in archives around the nation, this book helps separate
myth from reality and tells the story behind the
celebration in a way that provides new understanding and
appreciation for the event."--Jacket
