American Independence Day, July 4th, is a celebration of our Declaration of Independence from Britain, a statement that we intended to be our own nation, rather than continue on as a powerless colony Britain.
Emancipation Day refers to when American slaves were freed from bondage-- almost a hundred years later. Juneteenth is still celebrated today, in remembrance of both Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, and of the tremendous delay in the news spreading to some of the slave states. June 19th 1865 marked the date Emancipation was finally enforced in Texas, some 2 1/2 years after Lincoln's 1862 proclamation.
No. Independence Day has nothing to do with the abolishment of slavery. Abraham Lincoln abolished slavery because blacks helped the Union win the Civil War. Independence day is a holiday commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. I personally consider the Emancipation Proclamation (January 1, 1863) to be the true Declaration of Independence.
Canada achieved independence peacefully, through political evolution. Nobody killed anyone else in the process. Canada was the first country created by legislation. The US achieved independence through violent revolution, in which thousands were killed, maimed, and uprooted. Also, Canada Day is in Canada and on July 1, Independence Day is in US and on July 4.

Emancipation Day was celebrated privately until 1898, when Robert Love introduced the idea of a Convention. Out of that Convention came The People's Convention, which was set up so that the celebrations would continue in the future. 1900, the Convention ended but not the celebrations. They continued as usual until 1962 When Jamaica gained Independence in 1962, the country's leaders decided to merge the two, Emancipation and Independence, into one celebration, but over time, the commemoration of Emancipation steadily declined and the focus was more on Independence. Therefore, in 1997, it was decided that Emancipation Day should be observed as a separate National Holiday and the first official function to mark the restoration of it took place in Spanish Town where the Proclamation of Independence was read. This was done with the intention of re-awakening the spirit of the nation to its rich and colourful history.
