Thanks for publishing this article, Monica. I have found that most Americans and many Mexican Americans do not know the meaning of the 5 de mayo celebration. For them, it is a day to drink and party (kind of like another St. Pattrick’s day, but a Latino one). These are very interesting facts about that day. Gracias!
