Editorial: Reject the "Day of the Dead"

Editorial

A new, corrupt holiday is now being foisted upon the American people called the "Day of the Dead." This is a multicultural attempt to get Americans to learn the sacrificial practices of the Aztecs.

From Vdare.com, this is a brief summary.

• Mexicans’ War On American practices: It’s Now The Day Of The Dead, Gringos!

When reporter Daniel Hernandez wrote Day of the Dead: Your New American Holiday, FasterTimes.com, October 31, 2009,  he talked about cities “Mexicanizing”. When we say that, it’s Hate. Hernandez wrote:

Day of the Dead is increasingly becoming a United States holiday, with people of all backgrounds in Mexicanizing U.S. cities adopting the parties and customs of Mesoamerica’s cousin to Halloween. Just check out the annual scene at Hollywood Forever cemetery in Los Angeles. There are political touchstones to the holiday as well; In El Paso they are observing Día de los Muertos with a vigil for migrants who have died attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border.

Right! But as I wrote at the time, in a sense there’s nothing new here–most people don`t seem realize that the Day of the Dead is just All Saints Day and All Souls Day in a slightly different garb. Halloween, the Eve Of All Hallows, is part of the same festival.
Nothing wrong with that, although Americans can`t be blamed for finding the Mexican festival, with its candy skulls and Aztec associations slightly more bizarre than the American Trick Or Treating, the Great Pumpkin and Treehouse of Horror.
