    It’s just the “Nine” in nineteenth (a word that only has long vowels) replaced with June. June 19th turned into a single word. It specifically celebrates the day slavery was abolished in Texas.

        That is a good point. I guess they should deal with the holiday like Halloween or Christmas, celebrate it when everyone else does.
