How much do you know about Juneteenth (Read details)?

5/10, and I guessed on 9 of them.

^^ Pretty good for a non-colonial!

“You got 2 out of 10.
Looks like you need to learn some new things about Juneteenth!”

You don’t say…..

Until three, four years ago I had never even heard of it.
Guessed 10 out of 10.

I got 8 of 10. I guessed on quite a few.

8 out of 10. I’m glad I knew so many.

7 out of ten. I overestimated the number of salves in 1860, and got the states that continued as slave states until 1865

7 out of 10. It helped that so much attention was brought to it very recently. If I had taken this ten years ago I would have done much worse.

4/10 8(

@rebbel So did you get 2 out of 10 right or 10 out of 10 right? You put both.

4 out of 10. In my defense…I grew up around conservatives lol.

@Blackberry I learned most of what I know about Juneteenth in the last few years.

4 out of 10.

9/10
I missed the Delaware/Kentucky question. I knew some, guessed some.

I worked today and the Black Employee Network at our Amazon warehouse brought in a food truck for free BBQ for employees.

Most of our company-sponsored “celebrations” are Amazon t-shirt giveaways, or “wear this color this day to show support for this”. A little picnic was so much better.

^^I missed the Delaware Kentucky also. I don’t remember the exact question, but I tried to reason it out and I vaguely remember Maryland not having slavery in parts of the state as slavery became more and more controversial even though it was a slave state, because it was so close to DC, so I thought just by adjacency Delaware would not have gone on after the 13th amendment. I actually was surprised that Delaware was a slave state at all.

@janbb
I don’t read about African american struggles anymore. Makes my blood boil. Everyday you can find something worse, and thats all of history.

Although I am glad people found out about Belgium’s leadership in africa in the past and took his statue down.

Four correct, three of which pure guesswork. Lincoln was the standout obvious answer.

8/10 Missed the two states and traditional beverage.

I got 8/10. Missed the states and the flag.
