Juneteenth is on Sunday, and this toddler is the perfect inspiration for your celebration wardrobe.
Last year, the White House announced Juneteenth would be recognized as an official federal holiday every year on June 19. The holiday commemorates June 19, 1865, when enslaved Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally learned they were legally free years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
TikToker Jayla Ferrell commemorated the holiday last year by making sure her toddler son Messiah had the perfect Juneteenth ‘fit.
