Thank you for your info on Juneteenth. Never had heard of it or how the surrenders played out over time. My kids learned some of the significance of June 19th in school in the 90's& early 2000's. But it was just about Galveston, not the 13th ammendment connection

Autistic kids:
X post by Amy Nixon (@texasrunnerDFW ), featuring a verification badge. The post reads, "The USA is weird now. If you're a person under 30, you probably think it's normal but that's because you don't know. Trust me. It's weird."
America hasn’t felt this upside down since I was a child in an internment camp.

A reminder for these times.
You can either support the United States of America and our democracy, or you can support trump.
You cannot do both.
