Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak discuss the origins of Juneteenth, noting that Black Americans historically celebrated the end of slavery on January 1st to mark the 1863 Emancipation Proclamation. A featured clip argues that the modern framing of Juneteenth is a "repackaged segregation" by the left, claiming Democrats kept people enslaved for two years after abolition until right-wing men intervened in Galveston on June 19, 1865.

### Father's Day Traditions, Juneteenth Federal Holiday Origins

- **Episode:** [1461: Bi-Pox](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1461-bi-pox.md)
- **Published:** 2022-06-19
- **Time:** 4:04
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1461-bi-pox/chapter/father-s-day-traditions-juneteenth-federal-holiday-origins.md

The observation is made that Father's Day has shifted toward fathers texting each other rather than receiving traditional gifts. Discussion turns to Juneteenth being established as a federal holiday by President Biden in 2021 following the George Floyd protests. The holiday is characterized as a local Texas celebration of the delayed notification of the Emancipation Proclamation rather than the legal end of slavery itself.

### Abraham Lincoln's 1862 Letter on Union and Slavery

- **Episode:** [959: Stay Safe!](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/959-stay-safe.md)
- **Published:** 2017-08-27
- **Time:** 1:00:50–1:04:02
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/959-stay-safe/chapter/abraham-lincoln-s-1862-letter-on-union-and-slavery.md

In an 1862 letter to editor Horace Greeley, Abraham Lincoln explicitly stated that his primary goal in the Civil War was to save the Union, not to save or destroy slavery. Lincoln wrote that if he could save the Union without freeing any slaves, he would do so, and if he could save it by freeing all of them, he would do that as well. This historical document is cited to challenge the modern consensus that the war was fought exclusively over the issue of slavery.

A presidential proclamation renamed "White Cane Safety Day" to "Blind Americans Equality Day," a move criticized as unnecessary linguistic engineering.
