Juneteenth Holiday - Office is Closed

Event details

Today is the Juneteenth  the US.   Our offices will be closed.

Holiday Background

On June 19th, 1865, the Emancipation Proclamation— which had been issued on January 1, 1863— was read to enslaved African-Americans in Texas by Gordon Granger. This date signifies the emancipation of the last remaining enslaved people in the Confederacy. This was 2.5 years after the Emancipation Proclamation and while history after this date was still fraught with Jim Crow and other discriminatory practices, Juneteenth is seen as a day of celebration. Texas was the last Confederate State to have the proclamation announced, after the end of the American Civil War in April of that year.

2600Hz started honoring this day last year, and just recently the US Senate voted unanimously to declare it a holiday also.
