Tucson Juneteenth Gospel Celebration

Southwest Soul Circuit presents the 2019 Tucson Juneteenth Gospel Celebration featuring Angela Blair-Jeffries, Kim Washington and Nathan Myers.

Juneteenth, also known as Juneteenth Independence Day or Freedom Day, is an American holiday that commemorates the June 19, 1865 announcement of the abolition of slavery in the U.S. state of Texas, and more generally the emancipation of enslaved African Americans throughout the former Confederate States of America.
