Yet Another Flag: Vox Explains the Juneteenth Banner’s Origin

There’s a flag for nearly everything left-wing nowadays, and now the newly Biden-mandated federal holiday “Juneteenth” has one of its own. Vox reports the flag has been around since the 1990s, but of course, no one cared until now, as the left pushes the faux holiday upon all Americans.

Joe Biden was the first to name Juneteenth a federal holiday in 2021. This holiday is on the anniversary that Union Forces reached slaves in Southwest Texas to tell them they had been freed. The holiday, largely unknown outside Texas, came to national prominence during the Trump presidency, where it was used to attack Trump. 

The creator of the flag, Ben Haith, told Vox that he was “just doing what God told me.” Apparently, then, God must have also told him that he should oppose a gay couple starting a foster home for two young boys in 1985, and God spoke through him when he said that it was “it ultimately as a breakdown of the society and its values and morals.” 

It is not a remarkable flag. The flag is simply a rectangle made of black and red with a star, and an asymmetrical burst around it. Vox reports that some leftists are unhappy with the use of colors from America instead of pan-African colours, as America is the oppressor. How is that new for the left?
