Hey December! Christmas Isn't The Only Holiday

Ah yes. Twinkle lights. Trees. Candles. Songs. And no, we're not just talking about Christmas. Join Andrea and Hostion as they briefly explore the holidays of December celebrated by people of the world.From Mexico to Japan, Persia to California, Norway to England, you'll find this episode is a celebratory trip around the world. Learn about the only holiday in December which celebrates and honours a woman. Learn about a holiday born out of racial oppression and civic rebellion. And if that isn't enough to keep you curious, learn about two holidays which may have ancient links and ties to each other.   It's December and Christmas isn't all there is to celebrate - at least, not for immigrants here in Canada. Happy Holidays!Let us know what you think of this episode!
