We have two summer holidays and one "based on race" because the one "based on race" recognizes the time Union soldiers arrived on the Texan shores and forcibly freed a group of people subjugated based on their race--it just didn't happen to fall on July 4th.

The two holidays recognize two completely different things it doesn't matter when in the damn year it occurred.
