Philadelphia Juneteenth Festival

Philadelphia Juneteenth Festival Philadelphia Juneteenth Festival Many people think slavery ended on September 22, 1862 – the date Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation.

In reality, many slaves weren’t freed until much later when news of the proclamation reached their towns. The last of those slaves lived in the South and were freed on June 19, 1865 after the Emancipation Proclamation was read on a harbor pier in Galveston, Texas. This date eventually became known as “Juneteenth.” Today, Juneteenth is celebrated in more than 40 states throughout the country, including Historic Germantown area of Philadelphia.
