Holidays an traditions

Day of respect for cultural diversity:

The origins of this holiday are actually the same as Columbus Day. The day was first celebrated in Argentina in 1917. Workers get the day off to spend with their family and celebrate and remember the day that Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas. The name of the holiday was changed to “Day of Respect for Cultural Diversity” because some of the indigenous people think of the arrival of Christopher Columbus a bad thing. It began as a holiday to celebrate the Hispanic influence on the Americas but has since turned into a celebration of diversity.
