[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid loves diversity but doesn't like heritage celebrations. DC feels they celebrate big groups at the expense of smaller ethnicities.[/quote] πππ Aren't [b]Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, [/b]Memorial Day, 4th of July all holidays at the expense of others? Halloween is Druid (European) Thanksgiving (celebrates the killing of Natives and being grateful that Europeans could come here to settle with their families) Memorial Day (commentates the people who died fighting in wars started by Europeans) 4th of July (celebrates freedom from England while keeping African people as captives in America) I could go on ...... [/quote] Theyβre not celebrated at most MCPS schools anymore.[/quote]
