On June 19, 1865, word reached enslaved African Americans in Galveston Bay, Texas. Two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, which could not be implemented in places still under Confederate control, Union troops rode into the state where 250,000 people remained enslaved until the war’s end. Known as #Juneteenth, this day is widely celebrated as the end of chattel slavery in the U.S.
Before the Civil War, African Americans who were free needed to carry a freedom paper with them. They could be stopped on the street and required to show this document that proved their freedom.
Joseph Trammell was born enslaved in Virginia in 1831, and eventually gained his freedom. He knew how crucial it was to have the paper with him because if something happened to it, he would be enslaved again. So he built this tin wallet to protect it and keep it from getting lost, which is now in our @nmaahc.
Every night when he came back after a day of work, Trammell would take the freedom paper out of his wallet and tell his family about the meaning of freedom—how hard it was to gain and how to never take it for granted.

rennstrada @badhabit52 but Vermont did not abolish the slave trade. You haven’t a leg to stand on. And yes, Britons and British North Americans (Canadians) fought on the side of the Union in the Civil War. They were genuine abolitionists who put their lives on the line for principle, not people who had to be conscripted to fight for Northern monied interests nor impoverished souls paid to take the place of the conscripted wealthy. Canada was also the terminus of the underground railway (look it up - it was a secret pathway for escaped slaves because the moral north wasn’t safe thanks to Chief Justice Taney, SCOTUS, and the inherent prejudices of the great “republic”. Now stop denying that your “republic” (failed and woefully corrupt) was beholden to slaving interests since its inception and continued the trade until at least 1865, if not the *legal* importation. Either be proud of your country for what it really is, or stop crowing and promulgating falsehoods.

rennstrada @badhabit52 an American with no noticeable education doesn’t know the definition of sovereignty. In 1867 Canada gained self-governance but did not have control over its foreign policy (1932/36) or its ultimate judicial appeal (1982 with the repatriation of its Constitution replacing the British North America act of 1867). Your ignorance is...boundless.

rennstrada @badhabit52 what “my own”? I live in NY. And each day I do a little more to undermine you and yours, promulgating facts and truth over ignorance and fear. Anyway, you are boring as well as wrong and are henceforth non-existent.

wendereid In honor of all who were slaves and who fought to free them, be sure to always vote! And to be well informed about who you choose to elect! This is the responsibility and celebration of freedom ????❤️

mammarodgers The Legacy Museum and National Memorial for Peace & Justice, Montgomery AL are hallowed grounds for the history of slavery, Jim Crow laws and immense suffering black Americans endured.
