πβ¨ Itβs a rather new American federal holiday to commemorate the end of slavery.
In May 1865, the United States of America, π₯Ή a democracy of honest, civilized people πΊπΈ, defeated the fascistic conservatives, the Confederacy of slave states (southern parts of the country), in the American Civil War (April 1861 β May 1865).

It takes a while to ride your horse to Texas and let the slaves know that they're free.
