Juneteenth is the oldest known celebration commemorating the State of Texas’ emancipation from slavery. It is a moment in time taken to appreciate the African American experience. Juneteenth today, celebrates African American’s freedom while encouraging self-development and respect for all cultures. Although primarily an African-American holiday, it has now evolved into a celebration of the end of slavery by people of all races. This festival consists of a variety of activities and events for the family. There will be entertainment stages, a Barbecue Cook-off, Basketball Tournament, Vendors, kids’ areas and much more.

Black History Month Program - February 2010

What is Black History Month?
Black History Month is an annual observance, in February, of the past achievements and current status of African Americans. It coincides with the birthdays of the great black leader Frederick Douglass (February 14) and of Abraham Lincoln (February 12).

The idea for an observance honoring accomplishments of African Americans led to the establishment of Negro History Week in 1926. It was proposed by Carter G. Woodson, a black historian known as the Father of Black History, and others. The observance became known as Black History Week during the early 1970’s and was established as Black History Month in 1976. “Black History Month.” World Book Student. 2009. [Place of access.] 7 Jan. 2009
