May 8. May-8. Mate. 🤝 Today is the 8th of May, and while you might not recognise the date (and might not have any idea what it’s symbolic of), we’re here to tell you that today IS pretty important for some of us. Suggested as a better, more appropriate and respectful day to celebrate ‘Australia Day’ (which we, here at EVER, do not celebrate on the 26th of January), the 8th of May is a day to focus on friendship and connection. If you, like us, don’t celebrate the 26th of January, and are looking for a different day to love our country and the people who live here, it might be worth considering May 8.

Happy Cinco de Mayo to all my connections! What Is Cinco de Mayo? Cinco de Mayo is a holiday celebrated on May 5 in parts of Mexico and the United States. The day commemorates the victory of the outnumbered Mexican army over the French army at the 1862 Battle of Puebla during the Second Franco-Mexican War. Contrary to popular opinion, Cinco de Mayo is not a celebration of Mexico’s independence. The actual Mexican Independence Day falls on Sept. 16 and celebrates the ‘Cry of Dolores’, the call to arms that launched the Mexican War of Independence. Today in Mexico, Cinco de Mayo is actually a relatively minor holiday, according to History.com. It’s mainly celebrated in the state of Puebla, where the battle occurred, but other parts of the country do not typically mark the day in any major way. In the United States, on the other hand, Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a more widespread celebration of Mexican culture and traditions. Cities around the U.S. celebrate the holiday with events highlighting traditional Mexican dancing, music and cuisine.

The Mexican Flag: Colors and Design The national flag of Mexico consists of three vertical stripes green, white, and red. Here are the key elements: Color Symbolism: Green: Represents hope, independence, and the lush landscapes of Mexico. White: Signifies purity, unity, and the desire for peace. Red: Stands for courage, bloodshed, and the sacrifices made by those who fought for freedom. Coat of Arms: The central white stripe bears the Mexican coat of arms. The emblem features an eagle perched on a cactus, devouring a serpent. This iconic image has deep historical roots: Aztec Legend: According to Aztec legend, an eagle guided the Mexica people (ancestors of modern-day Mexicans) to their destined homeland—where they founded the great city of Tenochtitlan (now Mexico City). Symbolism: The eagle represents strength, bravery, and vision. The cactus symbolizes the rocky foundation upon which Mexico was built, and the serpent signifies conquest and transformation. Historical Evolution: Before the adoption of the current flag, various banners were used during Mexico’s War of Independence from Spain. The first Mexican flag, often associated with Miguel Hidalgo, featured the Standard of the Virgin of Guadalupe—a religious symbol. The modern tricolor—green, white, and red—was officially adopted in 1821 after Mexico gained independence. The eagle in these arms held no serpent and was crowned to signify the First Mexican Empire. Legacy and Pride: The Mexican flag waves proudly at official buildings, schools, and public events. On September 16th each year, Mexicans celebrate Independence Day—the anniversary of Miguel Hidalgo’s famous “Grito de Dolores” (Cry of Dolores) that ignited the struggle for freedom. In summary, the Mexican flag encapsulates centuries of history, resilience, and the enduring spirit of a nation. When you see those vibrant colors fluttering in the breeze, remember the stories they tell—the triumphs, the sacrifices, and the unwavering hope for a better future. 🇲🇽✨

It's Mexican Independence Day! Mexican Independence Day (September 16) means something to many Hispanic Americans, especially those of Mexican heritage. It celebrates Mexico's liberation from Spanish rule back in the 1800s. Here in America, it's a day to honor Mexican culture, history, and contributions to our American society. For me it fosters pride in my Mexican roots while embracing my American identity, which symbolizes my dual heritage that many Mexican-Americans cherish and share.

Te iwi E - A call to All New Zealand Tribemates - Unity in Diversity: Propelling New Zealand Forward Together Aotearoa, NZ, has a rich tapestry of cultures, traditions, and histories. From tangata whenua, the indigenous Māori, to those who have arrived more recently, our strength lies in our diversity. Everyone, no matter where they were born, how long they’ve been here, or their background, has a role in shaping our country's future. For generations, the resilience of our forebears has paved the way for where we stand today. Māori ancestors navigated the vast Pacific and laid down the foundations of a rich cultural heritage. Early settlers from across the world, including those from Europe, the Pacific Islands, and beyond, brought the spirit of perseverance, building a nation that reflects the values of hard work and community. Now, it is up to us to weave these legacies together. In doing so, we honour the sacrifices and wisdom of those who came before us. Whether through upholding and respecting all our cultures, doing our best to right the wrongs of the past, or simply embracing the uniqueness of each other's stories, we create a more robust, united New Zealand. Unity does not mean uniformity. It means that despite our differences, we share a common goal: to make New Zealand a better place for future generations. By working together, we ensure that compassion, equity, and mutual respect guide us. The strength of all our forebears—Māori, European, Pacific, and others—can propel us forward, creating a brighter future for all our descendants. Our journey as a nation is ongoing. Together, we can build a New Zealand where every person feels valued and empowered, and our shared history and diverse experiences serve as the foundation for a united future. Now, more than ever is the time to come together, harness the strength of our past, and propel our descendants forward with courage and vision. Let’s move beyond the divisions and embrace a future of unity and progress. Te iwi e, let’s rise as one tribe for Aotearoa New Zealand. https://lnkd.in/gXMZPmBg
