In the last few years, I have started to hear a lot more about a holiday in the US called Juneteenth. I knew that it was a significant event connected to the end of slavery, but this episode does a wonderful job at explaining the significance of Juneteenth and tells the story of the activist Miss Opal Lee who fought to make Juneteenth an official national holiday in America. In 2021, she was finally successful.
