Why quibble about which date accurately marks the freeing of the last remaining pocket(s) of slavery in the USA? Regardless, the purpose of "Juneteenth" is to celebrate the abolishment of slavery, which should be celebrated. I'm proud of UA for promoting Juneteenth. ETA: It's easy to correct:
quote:
On June 19, 155 years ago, the last group of enslaved people in the C.S.A. were freed. In December, 1865 the 13th Ammendment to the Consitution abolished slavery in the U.S.A.

Some poor UA Athletic's social media intern is going to get a tersely worded carrier pigeon about the ratification of the 13th amendment from their local Confederate States Preservation Society 
.
"In conclusion not only should you better inform yourself on state's right but you should show a little more respect to your ancestors and only send "tweets" the way our forefathers intended, via messenger fowl."
