As a person whose complexion would likely be described as very white, Im not exactly sure what the appropriate actions for me to take in celebrating Juneteenth would be.

Nah, I don't celebrate it (and just heard about it on CE a few days ago), but I couldn't care less if other people want to celebrate it.

I still do not understand the idea of naming a specific date with a portmanteau that could literally be any of six other days. Any of the other several names would have been so much better.

I thought Juneteenth was yesterday. I watched Beverly Hills Cop to celebrate.

As I type that out, maybe a movie about a police officer isn't the most appropriate choice in lieu of recent history. But it is a top tier Eddie Murphy movie and I do hope they make BHC4 like they've been saying they're going to.

Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating emancipation of enslaved African Americans. It is also often observed for celebrating African American culture. Originating in Galveston, Texas, it has been celebrated annually on June 19 in various parts of the United States since 1866.

I'd feel a bit weird celebrating an American event as a none American.

Be happy to if we made a day like that over here though.

Was invited to a BBQ but my dad is having one for Father's Day tomorrow. That's too much for me in one weekend and my dad takes priority here.

You look EXTREMELY immature when you announce that you're about to ignore someone. No one cares, including the person about to be ignored. Just FYI.

I went to schools with 95% black student populations and most of my friends were black so I always knew about it but I dont think I would have otherwise; I dont remember it ever being brought up as part of school curriculum or in any pop culture media.

What do you think is a better use of everyones time? You making a post asking what it is, then a follow up post, or just typing your original post into Google?

Honestly? Having a normal conversation about something without expecting people to Google everything separately. You obviously disagree.
