It's largely regional. Basically celebrated west of Texas as far as I know. So kind of a niche thing. Also, not really a "holiday" exactly but rather a good reason for a BBQ or block party where I come from.
Oklahoma is the reddest state he chose it because low covid numbers and of course massive support Tulsa is also close to a lot of other red states. He's going to get some great optics
Good optics are an understatement. Tulsa is the Bluest city in the state (still red though). The overwhelming interest practically guarantees the crazies will be out in force to “REEEEEEESIST.” The areas immediately surrounding downtown were fairly poor last time I was there (been a few years), so if riots spill out of the inner part of the city (which is not huge), you’ll see echoes of the “Burning of Black Wall Street,” led by racist dems. Because it’s OK, The media will attempt to spin the violence as being a result of “Alt Right Racist Agitators,” but it will be clear the the responsibility falls at the feet of BLM/Antifa.
You’re right the areas surrounding downtown are the poorer areas.i think the president will bring the mayor up also he has been trying to make inroads with the black community and speaks of greenwood quite a bit
And I still don't know why people are acting like it's such a big deal one way or the other it's one fucking day different and it was the correct thing to do lol... Jesus
Don’t be surprised if the event doesn’t wind up in the football stadium 4 miles away either... of if there isn’t a Jumbotron set up there for people to watch.
We should be celebrating Juneteenth as Republicans. Loudly and proudly as it is the day when word got out to our final state that our FIRST Republican President freed the DEMOCRAT'S slaves.
What most idiots fail to recognize is that Donald J. Trump Racist Extraordinaire shined a spotlight on Juneteenth. Barely anyone knew what it was before he changed his rally date. I find it to be a worthy celebration largely unknown to the general populace.
If the racism argument could be killed it'd have been dead a long time ago.
I have never heard of this "holiday" before. Did they just create this or something?
I have never hear of it before. But my gf did. She doesn’t know anything about it but had at least heard about it before.

I’m thinking he moved it because of a credible threat to his person or the crowd. Big Don doesn’t move things on a whim.
The art of the deal... enter the negotiation asking for things that don't matter to you, then offer to "give them up" as a "concession".

Imagine if Obama had one on the day. It would be covered glowingly. Black presidential candidate holds political rally on Juneteenth!
