❤️ In honor of the Juneteenth holiday, the Turnabout Shop will be closed Friday, June 19th, and reopen Saturday, June 20. Please note that the shop will be open on Wednesday 6/17 and Thursday 6/18 .

The day commemorates the day in 1865 when enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally learned they were free—two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Juneteenth celebrations expanded in the 1980s — Richmond was among the first in the Bay Area, staging annual parades featuring Black cowboys riding their horses on downtown streets.
Juneteenth is celebrated in our Bay Area in many expressions.
