National Freedom Day, which is always observed on February 1st, celebrates freedom from slavery. It also acknowledges that America is a symbol of liberty. The day honors Abraham Lincoln's signing of a joint House and Senate resolution that later became the 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution.
