Happy Juneteenth America! Where would y’all be without my people!? On this episode our Queensize Host MarNicka talks about the importance of Juneteenth in her upbringing and why she is so happy to see more people celebrate today. On this day in 1865, more than 250,000 slaves in Texas were informed of their freedom. They received this information TWO YEARS after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Today I commemorate Freedom Day with a emphasis on the importance of education.

America, this is your annual reminder that Juneteenth should be a national holiday but regardless of your support or recognition, we will continue to recognize and celebrate us with or without you.
