Cinco de Mayo: More Than Tacos & Tequila

Did you know Cinco de Mayo isn’t Mexican Independence Day? It actually marks a wild underdog victory over the French in 1862! While the U.S. loves to party with tacos and tequila, the real roots are about resilience and Mexican pride. Some say the holiday’s gotten a bit too commercial (looking at you, fake mustaches), but for many, it’s still about honoring heritage and family history. Next time you celebrate, maybe skip the sombrero and learn the real story! #CincoDeMayo #MexicanHeritage #Culture #History #MoreThanTacos
