Juneteenth, which falls on June 19, commemorates the fall of slavery in the United States.
It celebrates the anniversary of the order made by Major General Gordon Granger on June 1965 that proclaimed freedom for slaves in Texas. The order was actually made two years after Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation.
In a tweet Monday, former President Obama explained it as the “delayed but welcome news of freedom reaching the enslaved Black folks in Galveston, Texas.” In 2021, President Biden made Juneteenth a federal holiday.
Many networks are marking the occasion with Juneteenth TV specials or movie marathons showcasing Black talent and/or excellence. See our viewing guide below:

Screen Rant is thrilled to present a delicious sneak peek of this week's Made From Scratch, featuring Danny Trejo grilling his world-famous Trejo's Tacos. The Fuse original series returned for season 5 on February 8, and since then has welcomed viewers into the kitchens of celebrities like Roddy Ricch to Nicole Scherzinger. Unscripted but full of heart, Made From Scratch focuses on the homecooked meals and homespun memories that each guest makes with their loved ones.
Made From Scratch premiered on Fuse back in 2018, showcasing singer Ally Brooke in its very first episode. Since then, the show has had the honor to host incredible performers ranging from Jhené Aiko to Becky G. Actors have also made their way onto the program, such as when Euphoria's Javon Walton cooked baked ziti with his father or when Eva Longoria and her best friend made Texas Chalupas. This Wednesday, Trejo joins the tradition alongside his son Gilbert.
