      You’re the first person I’ve heard claim there were no more slaves after Juneteenth.

      The power of Juneteenth is that it’s a grassroots celebration by former slaves started the year after they were freed.

      Slavery didn’t really end until 1963 – or hasn’t even ended yet, if you count prison slavery.

      So what’s your point?
