A Juneteenth Celebration was held in Williams Park on Saturday afternoon.
The event included food, live music, and vendor booths.
It was organized by Just Kings, a Batavia-based community group.
Juneteenth falls on Wednesday this year. On June 19, 1865, the last slaves still being held in bondage in Texas were freed, bringing to an end an ugly chapter of United States history.
