In honor of Juneteenth, observed on June 19th and commemorating the end of slavery in America, we share this photo from the archives of an African American woman with a parasol at the Albright Art Parlors in Albuquerque, New Mexico, ca. 1890s. Juneteenth is considered America's "second Independence Day." In the 1890s, the celebration was mentioned in newspapers in Clovis and Roswell and referred to as "Emancipation Day," then later changed to "Juneteenth Emancipation Day" in the 1930s.

Juneteenth is now a national holiday honoring the achievements and resilience of the African American community throughout the US.
