Also known as Freedom Day or Jubilee Day, the name is a portmanteau of "June" and "nineteenth". It marks the historic day in 1865 when Union federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas, to enforce the Emancipation Proclamation and ensure the freedom of the state's remaining enslaved people.
Description: "We the People" are the opening words of the U.S. Constitution's preamble, establishing that the government's authority derives from its citizens rather than states or specific branches. Adopted in 1787, this phrase signifies a "more perfect union" and represents the foundational idea that the government exists to serve the people.
