JUNETEENTH 2022 MARCH & RALLY, NEWARK, NJ FanSmiles 2022-06-22 | This is the second year that P.O.P. is co-hosting this march with the NJ Institute of Social Justice (NJISJ) and a host of other organizations. Last year, Juneteenth was declared a national holiday. Juneteenth is a celebration to mark the end of slavery in Texas in 1865. That state’s slave-holding class withheld the end of slavery with the Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 1863 from its Black population. It was not until Union troops effectively occupied Texas at the end of the Civil War that that state’s Black population was emancipated on June 19, 1865. In recent years, Juneteenth has been embraced by African Americans nationally as a day to celebrate the end of slavery and to unite on the call for Reparations. Last year, P.O.P. and NJISJ joined forces to push a bill to empanel a Reparations Task Force (A938/S386) study on the impact of Slavery in New Jersey and how the state of New Jersey should address compensation. In addition to the call for a NJ Reparations Task Force as has already been done by the State of California just recently, this year’s march and rally will also call for Same Day Voter Registration and real Police Reform legislation.
