Miss Juneteenth (2020)


Miss Juneteenth 2020 poster

Turquoise, a former beauty queen turned hardworking single mother, prepares her rebellious teenage daughter for the "Miss Juneteenth" pageant, hoping to keep her from repeating the same mistakes in life that she did.
Turquoise Jones is a single mom who holds down a household, a rebellious teenager, and pretty much everything that goes down at Wayman's BBQ & Lounge. Turquoise is also a bona fide beauty queen--she was once crowned Miss Juneteenth, a title commemorating the day slaves in Texas were freed--two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Life didn't turn out as beautifully as the title promised, but Turquoise, determined to right her wrongs, is cultivating her daughter, Kai, to become Miss Juneteenth, even if Kai wants something else.
