Labor Day: it’s perhaps one of the least understood holidays of our culture. Sure, nobody minds getting a paid day off on the first Monday of every September, but did you ever stop to wonder WHY?
The holiday dates back to 1882, when the New York City Central Labor Union decided to create a day off “for working citizens.” A dozen years later, Congress designated Labor Day an official U.S. holiday, just two months after the May Day riots of 1894.
Many Americans consider Labor Day to be the official “end” of summer (even though many parts of the country continue to experience warmer weather well into September and in some parts of the U.S., children return to school as soon as early August).
Currently, many cities and towns celebrate Labor Day with a local parade, and in other areas, Americans enjoy barbecues, relaxation and oudoor gatherings with friends and family.
