Happy Juneteenth, everyone! I know that this has been accepted as a truly American holiday because people are already complaining that it’s been commercialized. They are absolutely right, by the way. From the Washington Post:
The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis advertised a “Juneteenth watermelon salad” in its food court, then dropped it and issued an apology after intense blowback.
I mean, come on, people. Honest to god, get with the damn program.
