Christmas Tree on the Street

 

It is kind of nice to once again work with an organization that shows support for popular community holidays.

The school at which I taught forever shamed everyone for not supporting other cultures and blocked every attempt to celebrate American holidays.  They really should be ashamed of themselves for not realizing it was their obligation to teach incoming cultures about American tradition to aid in the transition to this brave new world.  That is how it works in the rest of the world.

I need to come back to this and write more.  It really was an awful experience and sad for the children, who always wanted to know why we never did anything for Christmas.

I always did and always had a tiny tree in my room too as a bit of a dare, but mostly because the kids liked it.
