My (white) neighbor told me Juneteenth was an insult to black people and that if she was black she’d be pissed about it. She also says that George Washington and Abraham Lincoln are much more deserving of a federal holiday. (They came up because I think my office traded president’s day for Juneteenth)
That’s a fair guess. I see her socialize with the other dog folk in the neighborhood, and that is mostly generic white. There are minority dog folk in the neighborhood, but none who I read as black. (I’ve not asked and it’s not my place to be certain about anyone’s background without being told)

Hope your neighbor checks that with actual black people, but I guess she doesn’t know any.
