On a daily basis, the Colorado Capitol flies the American and Colorado flags. Beginning Tuesday, you may notice a new flag flapping in the wind.
In honor of the third anniversary of Juneteenth becoming a state holiday, Lt. Gov. Dianne Primavera and other members of Colorado's legislature raised the official Juneteenth flag at the Capitol.
Juneteenth commemorates the day in 1865 when the enslaved people in Galveston, Texas, found out they had been freed two years after President Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. Along with the holiday comes a special flag.
According to CNN, the banner has several symbols that represent the end of slavery in the U.S.
