Reflecting on Juneteenth: Black Americans praise holiday, say more work needs to be done By Darlene Superville and Kevin Freking Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Black Americans rejoiced after President Joe Biden made June- teenth a federal holiday, but some said that, while they appreciated the recognition at a time of racial reckoning in America, more is needed to change policies that disadvantage too many of their breth- ren. “It’s great, but it’s not enough,” said Gwen Grant, president and CEO of the Urban League of Kansas City. Grant said she was delighted by the quick vote this week by Congress to make June- teenth a national holiday because “it’s been a long time coming.” But she added that “we need Congress to pro- tect voting rights, and that needs to happen right now so we don’t regress any further. That is the most important thing Congress can be addressing at this time.” At a jubilant White House bill-signing cere- mony on Thursday, Biden agreed that more than a commemoration of the events of June 19, 1865, is needed. That’s when Union soldiers brought the news of freedom to enslaved Black people in Gal- veston, Texas — some 2 1/2 years after President Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation had freed slaves in Southern states. “This day doesn’t just celebrate the past.

Monday, June 21, 2021 • Queens Daily Eagle • 3 G uest Editorial Opinions The story of Juneteenth, the new federal holiday By the Associated Press The U.S. government is catching up with Black people who have been commemorating the end of slavery in the United States for generations with a day called “Juneteenth.” As readers doubtless know, President Joe Biden signed a bill Thursday that was passed by Congress to set aside Juneteenth, or June 19, as a federal holiday. “I hope this is the beginning of a change in the way we deal with one another,” he said. The Senate approved the bill unanimously; only 14 House Republicans — many representing states that were part of the slave-holding Confederacy in the 19th century — opposed the measure. What is this federal holiday, and what is its history? Here’s a look: The origins The celebration started with the freed slaves of Galveston, Texas. Although the Emancipation Proclamation freed the slaves in the South in 1863, it could not be enforced in many places un- til after the end of the Civil War in 1865. Laura Smalley, freed from a plantation near Bellville, Texas, remembered in a 1941 interview that the man she referred to as “old master” had gone to fight in the Civil War and came home without telling the people he enslaved what had happened. “Old master didn’t tell, you know, they was free,” Smalley said at the time. “I think now they say they worked them, six months after that. Six months. And turn them loose on the 19th of June. That’s why, you know, we celebrate that day.” Union Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger and his troops arrived at Galveston on June 19, 1865, with news that the war had ended and that the enslaved were now free. That was more than two months after Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant in Virginia. Granger delivered General Order No. 3, which said: “The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proc- lamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that be- tween employer and hired labor.” The next year, the now-free people started celebrating June- teenth in Galveston. Its observance has continued around the na- tion and the world since. Events include concerts, parades and readings of the Emancipation Proclamation. What does Juneteenth mean? The term Juneteenth is a blend of the words June and nine- teenth. The holiday has also been called Juneteenth Indepen- dence Day or Freedom Day. Often celebrated at first with church picnics and speeches, the holiday spread across the nation and internationally as Black Texans moved elsewhere. The vast majority of states recognize Juneteenth as a holiday or a day of recognition, like Flag Day, and most states hold cele- brations. Juneteenth is a paid holiday for state employees in Tex- as, New York, Virginia and Washington, and hundreds of compa- nies give workers a day off for Juneteenth. Why now? The national reckoning over race helped set the stage for Juneteenth to become the first new federal holiday since 1983, when Martin Luther King Jr. Day was created. The bill was sponsored by Sen. Edward Markey, D-Mass., and had 60 co-sponsors. Bipartisan support emerged as lawmak- ers struggled to overcome divisions that are still simmering fol- lowing the police killing last year of George Floyd in Minnesota. Supporters of the holiday have worked to make sure June- teenth celebrators don’t forget why the day exists. “In 1776 the country was freed from the British, but the peo- ple were not all free,” Dee Evans, national director of communi- cations of the National Juneteenth Observance Foundation, said in 2019. “June 19, 1865, was actually when the people and the entire country was actually free.” There’s also sentiment to use the day to remember the sac- rifices that were made for freedom in the United States — es- pecially in these racially and politically charged days. Said Para LaNell Agboga, museum site coordinator at the George Wash- ington Carver Museum, Cultural and Genealogy Center in Aus- tin, Texas: “Our freedoms are fragile, and it doesn’t take much for things to go backward.”

Bill de Blasio Monday, June 21, 2021 • Queens Daily Eagle • 9 Mayor Dave A. Chokshi, MD, MSc Health Commissioner Bill de Blasio Mayor Oxiris Barbot, MD Health Commissioner Your guide to the 2021 Primary Elections By Jacob Kaye Queens Daily Eagle The 2021 citywide primary elections are fi- nally here. Voters in every corner of the city will head to the polls on Tuesday to cast their ballots for may- or, comptroller, city council, civil court judge and many other elected offices in between. The election marks the first time ranked- choice voting will be used citywide after the new system passed as a ballot initiative in 2019. Here’s a quick refresher on how it works: Voters can rank their top five choices in order of preference. While not required, voters are high- ly encouraged to fill out all five slots. The more candidates a voter ranks, the longer their ballot will stay in the count. Choosing not to rank choices could cost a vot- er their ballot as well – ranking multiple people first or ranking no one first invalidates a ballot. If a voter wants to give one candidate ranks one through five, that’s allowed but defeats the purpose of RCV. And if you’re ever confused about how it works, you can ask a poll worker, who can also provide you with a replacement ballot if you make a mistake. If a candidate receives over 50 percent of first place votes after the first round of counting, the race is over and they’re declared the winner. If not, ranked-choice counting kicks into effect. Each subsequent round of counting sees the can- didate with the fewest first place votes eliminat- ed. During the next round of counting, the ballots which mark the eliminated candidate first, go to the candidate ranked second. Elections inspector Brian Linden, left, goes over a ranked choice voting explanation card with Elena Batyuk before she casts her vote The counting continues until there are only during early voting in the primary election, Monday, June 14, 2021, at the Church of St. Anthony of Padua in Soho.
