THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER
(National Anthem)
Words by Francis Scott Key
Oh, say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro’ the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro’ the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
LIFT EVERY VOICE AND SING
(Black National Anthem)
Words by James Weldon Johnson
Lift every voice and sing
Till earth and heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty:
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the listening skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song, full of faith that the dark past
has taught us;
Sing a song, full of the hope that the present has
brought us;
Facing the rising sun, of our new day begun,
Let us march on till victory is won.
God of our weary years,
God of our silent tears,
Thou who has brought us thus far on the way;
Thou who has by Thy might,
Let us into the light,
Keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet, stray from the places out God,
where we met Thee;
Lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the World,
we forget Thee;
Shadowed beneath Thy hand,
May we forever stand,
True to our God,
True to our native land!
THE SYMBOLIC IMPORTANCE
OF JUNETEENTH
In Texas, it’s a state holiday.
In 1979, through the efforts of Representative Al Edwards of Houston, the state legislature deleted Columbus Day from the list of state holidays and included Juneteenth...
June 19th...as an official State holiday.
Across the country some of the largest Juneteenth Festivals occur in Milwaukee, Phoenix,
Galveston, and of course, here in Pueblo.
BACKGROUND WORTH KNOWING
On June 19, 1865, Union General Gordon Granger issued prosaically titled General Order
Number 3 at Galveston, Texas, informing the slaves that they were free. Though Lincoln had
issued the Emancipation Proclamation nearly two and a half years earlier, on January 1, 1863,
the news traveled slowly, and the edict had no effect on slaves in areas where Confederate
forces held control. In Texas, the slaves referred to the day General Granger made his belated
announcement as Juneteenth. (Given the dehumanizing experiences they had undergone,
no one cared much as to which of the days between June 12th and 20th their freedom had
come. Just that it came.)
During the years immediately following their emancipation, the freed men established a
tradition with picnics, music and thanksgiving. These celebrations were more than times of
frivolity, feasting and games. While the gatherings were not occasions that dwell on the terrors of slavery, they certainly did become pageants of serious purpose, dramatizing the freed
slaves’ determination to choose their own life directions, their manner of earning a livelihood,
and to create a community in which they might survive, and perhaps prosper, in dignity. There
was profound meaning in their commemoration of this fateful event.
The symbolic impact of Juneteenth was still considerable in June 1936, when the Hall of
Negro Life officially opened in Dallas at the Texas Centennial Exposition. However, by the tumult
of the sixties, many young Blacks...embroiled in the Civil Rights movement and encouraged
by gains in the struggle...began to feel that Juneteenth was obsolete and inappropriate.
Recently, a new interest has arisen in preserving Juneteenth as an important and
living part of American history. As one views the increasing number of Juneteenth activities across the country, it is clear that the popularity of the idea has caught on once
again...and who knows, may grow to have as much meaning for us of today as it did
for those who first observed it following the experience of slavery.

The Emancipation Proclamation
January 1, 1863
A Transcription
By the President of the United States of America:
A Proclamation.
Whereas, on the twenty-second day of September, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-two, a proclamation
was issued by the President of the United States, containing, among other things, the following, to wit:
“That on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves
within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then,
thenceforward, and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authority
thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of such persons, and will do no act or acts to repress such persons, or any of them,
in any efforts they may make for their actual freedom.
“That the Executive will, on the first day of January aforesaid, by proclamation, designate the States and parts of States, if any, in
which the people thereof, respectively, shall then be in rebellion against the United States; and the fact that any State, or the people
thereof, shall on that day be, in good faith, represented in the Congress of the United States by members chosen thereto at elections
wherein a majority of the qualified voters of such State shall have participated, shall, in the absence of strong countervailing testimony, be deemed conclusive evidence that such State, and the people thereof, are not then in rebellion against the United States.”
Now, therefore I, Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, by virtue of the power in me vested as Commander-in-Chief, of
the Army and Navy of the United States in time of actual armed rebellion against the authority and government of the United States,
and as a fit and necessary war measure for suppressing said rebellion, do, on this first day of January, in the year of our Lord one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, and in accordance with my purpose so to do publicly proclaimed for the full period of one
hundred days, from the day first above mentioned, order and designate as the States and parts of States wherein the people thereof
respectively, are this day in rebellion against the United States, the following, to wit:
Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, (except the Parishes of St. Bernard, Plaquemines, Jefferson, St. John, St. Charles, St. James Ascension,
Assumption, Terrebonne, Lafourche, St. Mary, St. Martin, and Orleans, including the City of New Orleans) Mississippi, Alabama,
Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia, (except the forty-eight counties designated as West Virginia, and
also the counties of Berkley, Accomac, Northampton, Elizabeth City, York, Princess Ann, and Norfolk, including the cities of Norfolk and Portsmouth[)], and which excepted parts, are for the present, left precisely as if this proclamation were not issued.
And by virtue of the power, and for the purpose aforesaid, I do order and declare that all persons held as slaves within said designated States, and parts of States, are, and henceforward shall be free; and that the Executive government of the United States,
including the military and naval authorities thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of said persons.
And I hereby enjoin upon the people so declared to be free to abstain from all violence, unless in necessary self-defence; and I
recommend to them that, in all cases when allowed, they labor faithfully for reasonable wages.
And I further declare and make known, that such persons of suitable condition, will be received into the armed service of the United
States to garrison forts, positions, stations, and other places, and to man vessels of all sorts in said service.
And upon this act, sincerely believed to be an act of justice, warranted by the Constitution, upon military necessity, I invoke the
considerate judgment of mankind, and the gracious favor of Almighty God.
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty three, and of
the Independence of the United States of America the eighty-seventh.
By the President: ABRAHAM LINCOLN
WILLIAM H. SEWARD, Secretary of State.
WHY WE CELEBRATE
uneteenth represents the joy of freedom - the chance for a new beginning.
nless we expose the truth about the African-American slave experience,
AMERICANS WON’T TRULY BE FREE.
ever must we forget our ancestors’ endurance of one of the worst slave
experiences in human history.
very American has benefited from the wealth blacks created through
over 200 years of free labor and Juneteenth allows us to acknowledge that debt.
o encourage every former slave holding state to follow Texas’ and
Oklahoma’s example and make Juneteenth a State Holiday.
very day in America, blacks are reminded of the legacy of slavery. Juneteenth continues that by reminding us of the promise of deliverance.
ven on the journey to discover who we are, Juneteenth allows us to reflect on where we have been and where we are going as a people.
ever give up hope is the legacy our enslaved ancestors left. It was this
legacy that produced black heroism in the Civil War and helped launch
the modern civil rights era. It is the legacy that we celebrate.
o proclaim for all the world to hear, that human rights must never again
become subservient to property rights.
istory books have only told a small part of the story; Juneteenth gives
us a chance to set the record straight.

David Thomas Whitney
Welcome to the 33rd annual Juneteenth. My name is SSG David Thomas Whitney Sr. I am the
son of Walter and Opal Whitney, baby of eleven. First of all I would like to thank you for giving me the
opportunity again for being the Juneteenth President, and I would also like to take this opportunity to
thank West Wind Campus of Care at the PARC for allowing me to take time off of work. I have a great
staff and I have enjoyed working with and for Vice President Albert Neal.
I am trying to educate the young African Americans what Juneteenth is all about; what our slaves
went through, so when we come together today for this celebration I would like you to think about what
struggles they have overcome. The Juneteenth staff has brought and to showcase the Veterans of Pueblo,
Colorado and some special guests throughout Colorado from Tuskegee Airmen, Buffalo Soldiers, Veterans
and youngest African American Veteran in WWII. This day is set aside for Military Appreciation. I would
like to welcome all of you to take some time to educate our young African Americans and to share some
of your wonderful stories.
The Juneteenth Committees hope to have a wonderful day we worked very hard this past year to
have a better Juneteenth than the years before. We have a great team and we are always looking for new
members, new ideas and people that are willing to work to make our 34th year even better. On behalf
of the Juneteenth Organization enjoy yourself, enjoy some good Juneteenth cooked food, listen to some
good music, watch the kids play some games, and above all else enjoy our 33rd annual Juneteenth and
always have a safe Juneteenth.

on your 2013 celebration!
The Pueblo African-American Concerns Organization, also known as

been in existence since the fall of 1992. Our purpose is to provide
scholarships, mentoring, and tutoring to minority students in the Pueblo
Community. WE are trying to provide options for students in this
community who avoid behaviors which are self-limiting; options for
students who are willing to apply themselves and stay in school; options
for those motivated students who would pursue higher education if they
had an identifiable support system.
CONGRATULATIONS to the 2013 Juneteenth Committee.

I am very much honored to be chosen as a scholarship recipient of the Juneteenth Scholarship of 2012. I will
be a freshman at Colorado State University Fort Collins this coming fall.
I quickly learned the value of a college education when my mother sat me down and told me that I would be the
first to attend a four year university. This put a lot of pressure on me not only to succeed for my future but my
family. With my mother being a single parent, I was able to be awarded some financial aid by the government. I
knew if I wanted to make my dream a reality, I would need a little more assistance. So, I began writing my essay
for the Juneteenth scholarship. While writing, I must have edited at least ten times. I wanted to be a memorable
person to the Juneteenth Committee. Luckily, they enjoyed me enough to choose me as a recipient for their
scholarship. Because of this prestigious award, my first year of tuition will be mostly paid for, and I will begin an Undergraduate Degree in
Biochemistry at CSU Fort Collins.
While at CSU, I hope to accomplish a long list of things. From learning more about the pediatrics field and the Deaf Communities to
traveling the world, meeting new people, and becoming and adult. I plan on doing a significant amount of community service in Pueblo,
Colorado as the 12012 Juneteenth Queen and also in the Fort Collins community. I believe that with this platform, I will be able to become
an advocate for the many diverse people that live in Pueblo and Fort Collins.
Once again, I would like to offer my sincerest thank you, for your generosity in the Juneteenth Scholarship.
Bailey Jade Ford
I am very honored, sincerely grateful and appreciative for the Juneteenth Scholarship that I have been awarded.
It is such a blessing to have an opportunity to have an organization like this to assist me in achieving my future
academic endeavors. Your support has assisted me in paying my tuition costs at Johnson & Wales University in
Denver, Colorado, where I will be a freshman and a Criminal Justice major.
I want to thank those who have donated to this scholarship fund, and who have made it possible for college
bound students like myself to succeed. This gracious gift has given me inspiration to give back to my Pueblo
community once I graduate. I am proud to be a part of the Juneteenth Celebration and a recipient of this
prestigious scholarship.
Zolayne McCulley
As I approach my final year of my undergrad education, I would like to thank Juneteenth for being a part of my
journey. The Juneteenth Organization is a pillar in both the Pueblo and Bessemer communities. My gratitude
for Juneteenth is endless. I appreciate their continued confidence in my education and aspirations. I admire
their generosity and faith in my future, and as I live my life I hope to pay it forward as they have done for me.
Kaeia Williams
Rikki Monique Moore
I want to express my gratitude for your generosity and I truly appreciate your help in pursuing my education at
the University of Denver.
I am in my senior year at DU and I look forward to graduating this June 2013 with a double major in Psychology
and Communications and a double minor in Biology and Chemistry. My path at DU has prepared me for
medical school and my plan is to become a pediatrician. I have a passion for children and the need to help and
care for others. Along with my academic endeavors, I will continue my 4th year as a DU cheerleader. This
affords me the opportunity to promote school spirit and leadership.
Although I was extremely busy with school, I enjoyed directing the 2013 Juneteenth Scholarship Pageant. The contestants were a joy and
I believe the pageant was a success, especially expanding the categories and adding the newest category of Jr. Miss.
It is because of the support of the Juneteenth Organization that I have the opportunity to accomplish my goals and fulfill my dreams. You
have lightened my financial burden which allows me to focus more on the most important aspect of school, learning. Your generosity has
inspired me to help others and give back to the community. I hope one day I will be able to help students achieve their goals just as you
have helped me.
Tasia Danae Turner
I am so honored to be a recipient of the Juneteenth Scholarship for the 2011-2012 school year. I would like
to take the time to thank the Juneteenth Organization for this generous scholarship. I was very happy and
appreciative to learn that I was selected for this award to help out with my future education.
I am an undergraduate student entering as a freshman at Colorado State University of Pueblo in the fall of 2012.
I plan to pursue my career in biology Pre-med and am in hopes of one day becoming the best pediatrician out
there. I rely on my financial aid and grants to help finance my further education. Receiving this scholarship
will definitely help reduce the cost of my financial needs. I plan to apply for the nursing program this fall or the
following school year.
Once again, I would like to thank the organization for all of their support by selecting me for this scholarship. By awarding me the
Juneteenth Scholarship you have lightened my financial burden, which allows me to focus more on the most important aspect of school.
Your generosity has inspired me to help others fulfill their further education. I hope one day I will be able to help students achieve their goals
just as you have helped me. I promise to work hard in the school year and at some point give back to my community.
Albert Walton
I am honored to be a recipient of the Juneteenth Scholarship for the 2012-2013 School Year. I would like to
take this opportunity to say thank you to the selection committee for selecting me to receive this award.
I appreciate your willingness to contribute towards furthering my education. I am attending the University of
Northern Colorado in the fall of 2012 school year. I am a pre-nursing major with hopes of becoming a nurse,
then moving onto becoming a nurse practitioner. I am grateful for the opportunities this award will provide me
since I rely on financial aid, grants and student loans to help finance my education. Receiving this scholarship will
help reduce my financial burdens and provide assistance for me as I continue pursuing my education.
Once again, I would like to extend my thanks to the scholarship committee and the Juneteenth Organization for funding this scholarship.
The field I am going to enter once I finish my degree will allow me to give back to thee community for longevity. I want to give back by
helping others that are in need of medical attention. I will also be volunteering on blood drives and various things within the community. I
hope one day to fund my own scholarship or scholarships and have then be given within the middle class.
