34 years ago today, Batman Returns was released in theaters, giving the universe the perfection that is Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman. No one has ever looked this cunty on screen, before or since. #HellHere
On June 19th, 1865, federal forces arrived in Texas and finally announced that all enslaved people in Texas were now free.
Today, we are STILL fighting for equal representation for all Texans as our rights are under attack through racial gerrymandering and restrictions on voting rights. #Juneteenth

Today we celebrate Juneteenth, the day freedom's news finally reached the last enslaved Americans in Texas, over two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Justice delayed is justice denied. We honor those before us and recommit to the fight for civil rights and equal justice.

Happy Juneteenth! When we celebrate the time that racist Texans tried to keep slavery going for another 2 years after abolition. But "the news🤡" of abolition reached their slaves!
By "the news" I of course mean Black soldiers from the United States Colored Troops that liberated the Black Texans.
