💨 Abstract
"Severe storms in the DC area left thousands without power, coinciding with Juneteenth celebrations across the U.S. Juneteenth marks the day in 1865 when enslaved Black people in Texas learned of their freedom, gaining federal holiday status in 2021. President Joe Biden attended an event in Galveston, Texas, the holiday's origin."
