A way to cov er the rest of the year\, the remaining 337 days between each 28.Juneteent h represents the first major event for Black people in the USA. The reason it isn't independence day or the colonies or states is because during all those times Black people were enslaved to Whites. Whites enslaved Blacks in the lands that became the USA and during the USA itself\, as a law of t he land\, from 1492 to 1865. So for Black people in the U.S.A. the birth o f the USA didn't change the condition of Black people. Most of the Black p eople who fought for the independence of the colonies from the english emp ire were enslaved to whites in the usa after said independence. But\, the end of the War Between The States\, commonly called The Civil War \, did r epresent a true change for Black people as legal enslavement\, which was l egal in the english colonies or the usa itself\, became illegal for the fi rst time.Lift Every Voice And Sing's lyrics was written by James Weldon Jo hnson while the musical accompaniment was made by his brother J.
