They were no longer enslaved: they were free. The inhumane practice of forced labor with no pay was now illegal in all of the United States. This news was cause for celebration, so the group of people jumped in excitement, danced, and wept tears of joy. They did not know it at the time, but their joyous celebration of freedom would become a holiday--Juneteenth--that is observed each year by more and more Americans"-- Audience:  Ages 8-12 Penguin Workshop.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Liliha Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 394.263 Je Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 394.263 Je Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 394.263 Je Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 394.236 Je Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 394.263 Je Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 394.236 Je Checked In Add Copy to MyList Waimanalo P/S Library J -- Juvenile Nonfiction 394.263 Je Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: Prev 1 2
