About National Caribbean-American Heritage Month
United States
Ends: Jun 30, 2022
DESCRIPTION:
In June 2005, the House of Representatives adopted H. Con. Res. 71, recognizing the significance of Caribbean people in the United States. Later, the White House issued an annual proclamation recognizing June as Caribbean-American Heritage Month. The following is an excerpt from the 2013 presidential proclamation:
"National Caribbean-American Heritage Month is a time to celebrate the enduring achievements of this unique demographic. It is also a chance to recognize men and women who trace their roots to the Caribbean. Caribbean-Americans have made our country stronger through every chapter of our nation's history -- reshaping our politics and reigniting the arts, spurring our movements, and answering the call to serve."
A note of some delight, my international friends, are eternally amused that Americans seem compelled to hyphenate origin with the nation. Nowhere else in the world do people hyphenate. Case in point, have you ever heard or seen in print African-English, Asian-German, or Arab-Australian? Cultural hyphenation is another uniquely American quirk.
