What is the underlying reason for celebrating Juneteenth. Is it a joyful holiday for all Americans, a celebration like Saint Patrick’s day, or maybe even Christmas. I find Juneteenth is more of a negative celebration casting a wet blanket on America’s past. I find the underlying reason is more of a negative connotation, negative reminder specifically aimed at reminding us of a dark past. I’ve researched the founding of Juneteenth and nowhere in my research was there any positive joyous reason for celebration by all, more of a celebration by a small minority, a holiday forced onto the majority by disingenuous politicians. Juneteenth could be celebrated by all as a joyous event that should be an all inclusive holiday celebrating the Emancipation proclamation where we as a country outlawed slavery making Juneteenth a cause for celebration rather than a racist event.
 
WHY IS THE LEFT SUCH A CESSPIT OF RACISM? Some Blacks on Social Media Don’t Want White People Celebrating Juneteenth.

There are too many to list, but all show an unbridled prejudice and racial bigotry by black people toward white people. After what was supposed to be a racial reckoning, at a time when the ideas of diversity and inclusion have become an integral part of society, there is a significant amount of anti-white bigotry that exists in this country that regularly gets ignored.
The kind of racist comments made above would cause significant controversy if they were made by white people talking about black people. The same should hold when it is black people talking about white people. Decades of radical indoctrination in schools and other cultural institutions in society have taught many black people to be resentful and hateful toward white people for something that happened over 150 years ago that affected no one living today. It’s indicative of just how radicalized many in the country have become.
White people should not be made to feel guilty or be the victims of resentment over things people did decades and centuries ago. Such rhetoric does nothing to promote racial equality.
It’s more than slavery, as the people supporting reparations like to point out. There’s an ongoing, 150-year, “systematic” racial bias, white privilege, unequal opportunity, Jim Crow, and racial oppression that needs to be dealt with. But you can’t assign guilt based solely on race. It turns the entire concept of “guilt” on its head.
Reparations and bribes won’t solve it. An apology by white people would be ludicrous. History is “history” for a reason: It’s in the past. Trying to elicit feelings of guilt from people who weren’t alive at the time that blacks were enslaved and who never consciously participated in any kind of black oppression is wrong.

I’m sorry, racist fry guy said what??

And your research??? Your research is complete garbage that means nothing to sane individuals. Knock in the door of a public library there in Mass. and ask them to help you out. Of course you had to wait until today since the full independence of all people was celebrated yesterday.

(Except your research wouldn’t be able to show you that even that isn’t true, ask the Chinese in the 1880s)

It took until 1980 for the first state, which was the last state to see emancipation, to recognize the holiday.

So sorry celebrating this day weighs on yours racist confederate sympathizer heartstrings.

Look, more hash browns are up!

Just remember how Icant believes any acknowledgment whatsoever of the lingering effects of slavery and Jim Crow = fostering "divisiveness". That tells you all you need to know about his perspective about anything relating to Juneteenth.

Just remember YB is the consummate liar, typical! You don't want us to heal as a nation. You're forte is nothing more than a mechanism to perpetuate racism. You're Lit's version of Al Sharpton. America has come a long way but you being the race baiter that you are you prefer to sweep our advances in race relations and healing under a rug. You being the consummate race baiter you only see one side.

Oh, ok, now I understand.
Someone here has one of those calendars where they learn a new word every day and then attempt to use it in conversation. Today’s word is consummate. 👍

I can't wait for your threads about other US holidays that we don't celebrate properly. I'm sure they'll be a hoot.

He has done some crack research. He is ready to tell us all about Columbus Day next.

Wait, I doubt he will.
 
"Why aren't we focusing on white people? I mean...they're the ones that freed the slaves, am I right?"

At least bB got your whistle 👍
