Feliz Navidad! This month our program highlights Navidad—Christmas the Latino way! We’ll learn about traditions ranging from celebrating Las Posadas to Los Pastores to Nacimientos. We’ll learn some fascinating history about popular Latino Mystery plays centered on shepherds seeking el Nino Jesus, and Mary and Joseph finding shelter at the inn. Many of these plays and traditions date back to 16th and 17th century Mexico. These works migrated with the Franciscan fathers that settled in the missions of California, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Texas. Our program culminates with a Christmas legend about the poinsettia—also known as “La Flor de la Noche Buena.” www.rebeccakarimi.com
