What does it mean to celebrate your culture?
“Celebrating our heritage keeps our communities together, passes on values, traditions, and meanings through the different generations. We have a duty to learn, collect, and nurture the traditions and artifacts, but also to share it with our communities and everyone we meet.”
Why should we be proud of our heritage?
It helps us to connect and learn other cultures that we may not be familiar with. We learn to respect each other and it unites people from different backgrounds. If you don’t know your culture and heritage, it means you don’t know where you come from and where you are going. It’s our culture and needs to be respected.
