    Black Americans are rejoicing after President Joe Biden signed legislation establishing Juneteenth as a federal holiday. But some say more is needed to change policies that disadvantage too many of their brethren.http://apne.ws/7OwymEC

        Pass criminal justice reform and the Voting Rights Act and only then, I'll be grateful.

        Juneteenth existed already but not as a federal holiday. Some states had it as a holiday.

        “But some” as if those who see this a neoliberal ploy are ungrateful... also we aren’t celebrating this becoming a federal holiday. We’ve been celebrating and rejoicing on Juneteenth... it’s finally y’all catching up and acknowledging it. 🖤✊🏾❤️

        This is really just a small step forward. It’s encouraging, but more steps are necessary
