Join us at the Ella Mae Shamblee Library to hear a presentation by the renowned Donald Payton, genealogist, historian, and civil rights activist, as he dispels misconceptions about the early history of Juneteenth and the emancipation of enslaved people in the United States.
He’ll highlight significant moments in the history of its celebration and review the circumstances of its growth into a national holiday.
