On This #HappyJuneteenth! they reveal that #Emancipation wasn't fully-given even-AFTER they Learned they were #Emancipated !! @Yahoo @MentalFloss
Yahoo! explains the holiday in a report you can access through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The word “Emancipation" (a word famous from the #EmancipationProclamation 'freeing slaves' in 19th Century America; now applied to 'freeing of children from parents' or 'freeing of Catholics-etc. from British restrictions') is built on ancient words that mean "Out- or Away from the |Delivery, Transfer or Selling (from the burden of being Owned, of being Taken by slavers' Hands)"
