Juneteenth commemorates the 19th day in June, 1865, when Union General Gordon Grainger announced General Order No.3, proclaiming freedom from slavery in Texas. Celebrations began immediately, but eventually took a back seat to the civil rights movement in the 1960s. With the advent of Black Lives Matter new emphasis has been placed on the holiday, which we celebrate on this week's Magazine. We'll hear music from Reggie Harris, Eric Bibb, Robert Finley, Our Native Daughters, Sweet Honey in the Rock and many more. Tune in for a celebration of Juneteenth … this week on The Sing Out!
