Me senté con mi querido papi hoy para platicar un ratito. Le platiqué sobre el mundo de hoy, los fracasos políticos, la lucha sobre derechos humanos, la libertad, el respeto. El me platicaba tanto de su camino. “No te dejes, mija”, “Usa tu inteligencia”, me decía con mucha convicción. Papi, aquí sigo la lucha… por ti y los que no tienen voz. Gracias Papito, te recuerdo siempre y te quiero mucho ❤️

Día de los Mu***os, or Day of the Dead, is a centuries-old tradition that honors the lives of loved ones who have passed. Its roots stretch back to Indigenous cultures of Mesoamerica, where ancestors were remembered through ritual, art, and celebration. When the Spanish arrived in what is now Texas, these native customs merged with Catholic traditions like All Saints’ and All Souls’ Day; creating the vibrant holiday we know today.

At San Antonio Missions, you can see this cultural fusion come to life. From colorful altars adorned with marigolds and candles to music, food, and stories, the park reflects how Spanish and Indigenous traditions shaped communities along the San Antonio River.

Come explore mission descendant ofrendas/ Day of the Dead altars while they are still inside the Mission San Jose granary for a few more days!
