Officially declared a national holiday in 2021, the day marks the date when the news of the Emancipation Proclamation reached enslaved Blacks in Galveston, Texas on June 19, 1865. Chicago is built on the innovation and legacy of many Black people including Jean Baptiste Point Du Sable, Ida B. Wells, Gwendolyn Brooks, Harold Washington and many more. Commemorate the longest-running Black holiday in the Loop."}
