A little bit of Our CULTURE ❤

As Mexican Independence Day approaches, so does “El Grito”.

Mexican Independence Day is celebrated on Sept. 16, and el grito takes place the night before, just before midnight.

“El Grito” refers to El Grito de Dolores, “the cry” that Father Miguel Hidalgo delivered to his parish on Sept. 16, 1810 in the small town of Dolores, located in central Mexico.

The cry was a call to the Mexican people to rise up against the Spaniards after dealing with three centuries of Spanish Rule in Mexico.
And now — the tradition remains more alive than ever.

Mexicans, Mexican Americans and amigos around the world gather on the night of Sept. 15 for el grito.

“¡Viva México!”, “Long live Mexico!” can be heard during the celebratory night.

And as the tradition has continued, some tend to add their own spice to their grito.

Though it may seem silly to some, it’s truly a special night for those who participate.

You kind of just let everything out. The good, the bad, it all comes out during el grito.
So if you hear some rowdy chants tonight, don’t worry — it’s just people celebrating a beautiful country and its culture.

Frida Kahlo told her husband, "I'm not asking you to kiss me, nor apologize to me when I think you're wrong. I won't even ask you to hug me when I need it most. I don't ask you to tell me how beautiful I am, even if it's a lie, nor write me anything beautiful. I won't even ask you to call me to tell me how your day went, nor tell me you miss me. I won't ask you to thank me for everything I do for you, nor to care about me when my soul is down, and of course, I won't ask you to support me in my decisions. I won't even ask you to listen to me when I have a thousand stories to tell you. I won't ask you to do anything, not even be by my side forever. Because if I have to ask you, I don't want it
anymore.”
