Description
From October 27th until Novemnber 2nd, many start putting out their ofrendas and altars for the loved ones no longer physically with us. Sometimes, on the day of the dead, Dia de Muertos, it feels like our loved ones really do visit us. On today's episode, Cristina shares a listener story that takes place during Dia de Muertos and MJ shares her own Dia de Muertos story. In the first 15 minutes of the episode, we discuss Gaza, an attack on the Otomi and protests in Guatemala, skip to around minute 16 if you do not want to hear that.Learn more about the BDS movement: https://bdsmovement.net/get-involved/what-to-boycottWhere to donate to supoort the Palestinian cause: Click to Donate: https://arab.org/click-to-help/palestine/thank-you/Palestinian Children's Relief Fund: https://www.pcrf.net/Middle East Children's Alliance: https://www.mecaforpeace.org/Thank you so much for sending your stories!

The Legend of the Cuetlaxochitl: The legend of the Cuetlaxochitl, now more commonly called the Poinsettia or the Christmas flower, has a long history in Mexico. Before the Spanish, it had different medicinal uses and one 16th century legend would forever associate it with Christmas. We (Cristina and MJ) also share Christmas traditions we grew up with, different Christmas traditions around Latin America, we talk about El Dia de los Reyes Magos, some St Nicholas history and we end the episode with an Espooky Christmas story (around minute 34:00 if you want to skip all the Christmas stuff and go straight to the espooky stuff). We hope you enjoy- Cristina and MJ.
