    I feel an extra bit of thankfulness for my ancestors' strength. I am so proud of those who sacrificed and came before me. I am truly fortunate.

    Happy Juneteenth !!!

    June 19, 1865- General Gordon Granger arrives with a force of Union troops on Galveston Bay, Texas two years after the Emancipation Proclimation to announce to the Texas slaves that all 200,000 of them were free.
