"Juneteenth" Could be a New US Holiday

Just heard this in the news, a proposal for a new National Holiday called "Juneteenth": https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/what-will-it-take-to-make-juneteenth-a-national-holiday/ar-BB15IrqV?ocid=msn360
It celebrates the ending of slavery in the US, all the way back on June 19th, 1865.
Im all for it. I think its great and should have been done a long time ago. But the name sounds kinda odd to me.
What do you guys think? Cool name? Could have a better name? Do you support this holiday? How are Southern states going to respond to this possible holiday?
And how would the US celebrate the Ending of Slavery in a positive manner? Is Black Culture appropriation OK for this proposed new Holiday?

yup 
Its shorten from "June Nineteenth". Sounds too much like some kind of mixed drink name or something.

I honestly couldn't tell if he was part smart/plenty stupid, or having a laugh.

He's doing satire. It's a character. He does these vids all the time and its pretty funny. There's a good one from the beginning of covid where he's complaining about not being allowed to buy a cart full of mountain dew at wal-mart and he keeps coughing and calling it "the corolla virus"

When will white people get their own holiday? Maybe call it "Explorers day" or "Space Exploration" day.

When will white people stop whining about not having as much of an advantage as they used to have?
