“Martin Luther King, Jr. National Day” | “Juneteenth” | “National Commemoration Day” of Emancipation Proclamation
As is the Declaration of Independence, the Emancipation Proclamation Is Federal Law Related
Over their respective generations, since the enactment of Presidential Executive Order #95,…
…the 1863, Emancipation Proclamation, Americans of willing immigration heritage, i.e., white-Caucasian peoples, have sought to rectify the consequences of 245 years of generational-devastation chattel slavery institution,…
…have in a series of efforts, made certain overtures to correctly rectify it, thereby relive themselves of guilt from such a horrific, industry of human bondage.
Among the myriads of federal social service programs in the massive billions of dollars programs, they have enacted two federal, taxpaid, celebratory national holidays of January 19th, “Martin Luther King, Jr. Birthday”, and June 19th, “Juneteenth”.
Intended as instruments of rectification, they fall short of the authority needed to recover from the devastations of over four (4) generations of chattel slavery; and now the 99 years of Jim Crowism (1865-1964); topped by 58 years of failed government social policies and programs.
The primary cause for these humongous failures is, that neither is directly attached to federal law,…
…therefore, unlike the July 4th, “Independence Day”, and soon to be legislated, the Emancipation Proclamation “National Day…”,…
…commemorated annually on New Year’s Day, is also directly connected to federal law…
…but rather, with due respect for the general goodness intended by them respectively, MLK and Juneteenth National Days, are legislative powerless, serving only as an apparent appeasement…
…of giving federalized, black citizens a couple of party days, as we appear to be a “partying” people.
- First, essentially celebrating the fame of the young, beloved, Rev.-Dr. Martin Luther King Jr;
- Second, on June 19th, “Juneteenth” celebrated a few chattel slaves in a small town in Texas,…
…receiving the good news that the Civil War had been won by the then, Union Republican Party, Federal armies…
…over the Southern Democratic Party confederates, thereby ending the long nightmare of chattel slavery.
However, with the congressional legislation of the Emancipation Proclamation “National Commemoration Day”,,..
…while being the third and central “leg” of a three (3) legged platform, it is also the only one of them directly connected with federal law.
To date, of the eleven (11) National Holidays, only July 4th, “Independence Day” is distinguished as such, being connected directly to the July 1776, Declaration of Independence, the First Law of the United States, around which all federal legislation is created.
When Ms. Waters wins this relatively easy-won legislation, the Emancipation Proclamation “National Day”…
…will be the second federal holiday directly connected to federal law, i.e., Presidential Executive Order #95, which is tantamount to the Declaration of Independence.
The Legacies
The great entertainer, Stevie Wonder, is historically associated with the “MLK National Holiday”; whereas, the Hon. John Conyers is noted for HR #40, succeeded by the Hon. Sheila Jackson Lee, which is yet to be legislated; and Juneteenth, H.J. Res. 195, sponsored by the Hon. Congresswoman, Barbara-Rose Collins, initiated through the leadership of former school teacher, 96 years old, Ms. Opal Lee; whereas, Ms. Waters is federal law binding, and directly, legislatively connected with the legacy of the Hon. US President Abraham Lincoln.
While Mr. Lincoln wrote the “sentence” of the Emancipation Proclamation, Mr. Waters is now adding the “period”, completing its legislative intent.
Thanking GOD, The Most High
