Two friends grapple with their conflicting emotions on Juneteenth becoming a national holiday.

Juneteenth is a federal holiday, but there still isn’t consensus on how to celebrate it, and who should. Juneteenth is still our country’s newest federal holiday, and people are split on how we celebrate it.

Instead of giving America an answer, we opened a window into the conversations being had, becoming a catalyst for thoughtful conversations around Juneteenth — how the holiday should be celebrated and by whom.
