___ Lee, activist who led the movement to make Juneteenth a federal holiday (4)

I believe the answer is:

opal

(Other definitions for opal that I've seen before include "Gem stone" , "One in a ring perhaps" , "Gem with delicate colours" , "Type of gemstone" , "National gemstone of Australia" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
