For nearly three years after the Emancipation Proclamation, the Confederate states kept the implementation of freedom from their people.
It went until June 19, 1865, when 2,000 union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas, and declared to the more than 250,000 enslaved black people that they were free!
The wait for freedom was unjust, as were the entire actions of humanity at that time. Now we understand that we are not free until we are all free, and the same sentiment echoes across the world, from Congo, to Sudan, to Palestine.
