The “Day of the Dead” (Día de Muertos) is a blend of Indigenous and European (Catholicism) elements. The Mexica and other indigenous peoples held their celebrations dedicated to the dead during the summer, and it was colonial Catholic influence that shifted the observance to the autumn. The “Día de Muertos” is NO longer one hundred percent Indigenous.
Various organizations held events for the Day of the Dead in New York City. Some of those organizations were: Red de Pueblos Trasnacionales, Mano: Mexican Culture Without Borders, etc.
How many millions of indigenous people were killed by White Europeans that invaded the Americas?
Historians and demographers estimate that the pre-1492 population of the Americas varied widely, with total numbers often calculated between 50 million and 100 million people.
A 2019 study by University College London researchers estimated that roughly 56 million Indigenous people were killed over the first century of colonization.
“Settlers killed off huge numbers of people in conflicts and also by spreading disease, which reduced the indigenous population by 90% in the century following Christopher Columbus’s initial journey to the Americas and Caribbean in 1492,” wrote Oliver Milman on www.theguardian.com on January 31, 2019.
How many Mexicans have been killed by the US government since 1846?
During the U.S. invasion to Mexico from 1846 to 1848, an estimated 25,000 Mexicans (including military deaths, disease, and civilian casualties) lost their lives as a direct result of the U.S. invasion.
In the decades following the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, frontier violence and extrajudicial killings targeted Mexican-Americans and Mexican nationals in the U.S. Southwest.
During the 1914 U.S. occupation, invasion of Veracruz, historical estimates generally place the number of Mexicans killed by the US government (military and civilian) at 300.
How many hundreds of thousands Indigenous Palestinians have been killed by Israel since 1948?
Hundreds of thousands of Indigenous Palestinians have been killed by Israel since 1948.
(Hundreds of thousands Indigenous Palestinians have been displaced: During the 1948 Nakba, approximately 750,000 to 800,000 Palestinians were forcibly expelled or fled their homes.)
How many journalists have been killed by Israel since 1948 in Palestine, Lebanon, Syria,Yemen, Iran, etc?
The total number of journalists killed by Israeli forces varies depending on the tracking agency. Press freedom watchdogs note that the overwhelming majority of journalists killed by Israeli have occurred from October 7, 2023 to October 31, 2026.
The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) notes that Israel has killed more journalists than any other government since the organization began record-keeping in 1992.
The Democratic Party and the Republican Party have always supported Israel. Democrats and Republicans give billions of USA taxpayers money to Israel.

Democrat and Republican politicians give billions of taxpayers money to police departments.

Sábado 10 de Noviembre de 2012. Ocupada Manahatta, Lenapehoking (Manhattan, ciudad de Nueva York) – La organización Mano a Mano celebra el Día de Muertos. El Día de Muertos es una celebración que se realiza desde hace aproximadamente tres mil quinientos años. Cuando los Europeos invadieron lo que hoy se conoce como México, ya personas Indígenas celebraban el Día de Muertos. El actual Día de Muertos es una mezcla de lo Indígena con el catolicismo.
