Emancipation is different to independence (independence Day) this is about the freedom of African slaves...there& #39;s still much work to be done in the present day, but this is to celebrate our ancestors, our History! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😍" title="Lächelndes Gesicht mit herzförmigen Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Lächelndes Gesicht mit herzförmigen Augen">
