Commissioner Calls Juneteenth a Lie
Description
A North Carolina county commissioner sparked outrage by calling Juneteenth a “lie,” arguing it misrepresents history and wrongly centers Texas events over the Thirteenth Amendment’s ratification. His controversial stance, including a racially charged outburst during a public meeting, drew swift backlash and forced an apology — even as his own board ultimately approved the holiday proclamation. His past inflammatory remarks, including comparing Lincoln to Hitler, add to the firestorm.
