FTV 163 Pacifica’s Juneteenth Special 2002

Juneteenth (June 19th) commemorates a significant day in African American history. Juneteenth, also known as African American Emancipation Day, is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. In 2002 the five Pacifica stations preempted regular programming to simulcast a 15-hour special Juneteenth broadcast. In this episode of From the Vault, we feature highlights from that historic day of radio.
From the Vault is presented as part of the Pacifica Radio Archives Preservation and Access Project.
