Last night if you were willing to stand in line for about 10 minutes you could get one of these jerseys for free. My buddy got one and will never wear it. He was offered money for it from 3 different people. He didn't sell it to anyone.
Guess the HIGHEST offer.

1. e - today is going to be 82 so I can manage. if you asked me tomorrow i'd have said cell phone.
2. MLK. Easy. Juneteenth seems like a holiday largely initiated by guilty white people.
3. Danny Manning

200 bucks?

[ousdahl]

1. There’s hardly any AC in my area to begin with. But G is just too tempting. See you loosers tomorrow.
2. I almost said something like MLK seems like a holiday largely initiated by guilty white people, but instead imma just say…both?

2. I am not going to give you a hard time because my guess is between 40% and 60% of Americans don't know what it is other than a "Black" holiday.

[pdub]

I don't know the intricate details but I believe it was when the last black people in the United States were officially freed.

Yet it was just added as a holiday in 2021.

1. Computer
2. Holidays to me are things like Thanksgiving Christmas and Easter. 4th of July. I don't consider President's Day or MLK day or Juneteenth as holidays. But I respect you if you do.
3. Roy Williams

Wednesdays are Holidays for me. Days of worship. On the golf course. Fellowship and fun.


And gambling, drinking, smoking, and who knows what else.

[MICHHAWK]

in my mind the holidays are:
new years
easter
memorial day
4th of july
labor day
thanksgiving
christmas

the rest of them. whatever.

Having now read the other responses... both have lots of importance. For me, MLK is about peaceful resistance. Juneteenth is about freedom for all. I am sure I am not educated well (or at all) on this. Buffalo, NY has been holding a Juneteenth celebration since 1976.

[TDub]

1. Computer, haven't used one in months anyway.

2. MLK day

I'm in full support of having Juneteenth celebrations wherever they may be.
Let's not with another day off for kids in school.
In fact, I'd very much argue that they'd be better off in school/camp with a day centered around the meaning of Juneteenth...because 95% of parents aren't going to even mention the meaning/reason.

[MICHHAWK]

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

Junenineteenth.

I'm relieved to see you post this, because your earlier, annual, "sucks" posts, came across as very White privilegeish.
