Today American celebrate Juneteenth, a holiday that marks 161 years since the last enslaved people in the United States were finally told they were free. Nearly two years after President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation and more than two months after Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered at Appomattox at the end of the Civil War, Union troops made it to Galveston Bay, Texas, to make the announcement.
Juneteenth has been a federal holiday since 2021. All non-essential federal offices will be closed, including the post office and banks, although DMV locations will remain open.
Investors, both professional and amateur, will also get a day off.
