Why do we Celebrate Cinco de Mayo? - Episode #33

In this episode, we dive into the history of Cinco de Mayo, a holiday that does NOT celebrate Mexican Independence Day, but the victory of the Mexican army over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. We'll explore the significance of this battle, and how it became a symbol of Mexican pride and resistance against foreign oppression. We'll also examine how Cinco de Mayo has been celebrated over the years, both in Mexico and in the United States, and how its meaning has evolved over time. Whether you're curious about the origins of this holiday or just looking to deepen your understanding of Mexican culture and history, this episode is for you.
