Do we ever pause to consider which habits and traditions we carry forward into the future? Which customs are important enough for you to pass on to the next generation, and which ones do you let go of? At Homeland, we take the time to contemplate these questions. How wonderful would it be to raise awareness in our children and make their homeland tangible? To make it moldable for the future. We believe in cherishing the traditions that hold meaning and value, while embracing the evolution that time brings. By instilling a sense of heritage and fostering a deep connection to their roots, we empower our children to shape their own future while honoring the past. Let us embark on this journey together, as we create a legacy that transcends generations. Together, we can build a homeland that is not only preserved, but also transformed into a beacon of progress and unity. May our children inherit a world where their cultural heritage thrives, and where they are inspired to carry it forward with pride and purpose. In the coming months, we will be sharing more about our project Homeland and how children can be a part of this journey. www.stonesstories.com

Happy Monday!! 😀 It's COLUMBUS DAY!! Columbus Day on the second Monday in October is observed in the United States each year. The day signifies Christopher Columbus’ arrival to America on October 12, 1492. #ColumbusDay Christopher Columbus was long given credit for discovering North America. However, long before Columbus was born (1451-1506), Leif Erikson landed on these shores. The Italian-born explorer did sail across the Atlantic, though, and more than once. In fact, he made four transatlantic voyages. His first was in 1492. Hence the rhyme, "In 1492, Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue." LEARN MORE: During the 1492 expedition, Columbus was looking for Asia. He and his crew landed their three ships somewhere near the modern-day Bahamas🏝. While he may not have discovered an already populated continent, he did spur further exploration and colonization of North America. HOW TO OBSERVE COLUMBUS DAY: Learn more about Christopher Columbus and his voyages. Use #ColumbusDay to post on social media. COLUMBUS DAY HISTORY: Colorado first observed Columbus Day in 1906 as it became an official state holiday. More and more people and states began to recognize the observance. In 1937, Columbus Day became a federal holiday in the United States. Many instances of people observing Columbus’ voyage🗺 exist since the colonial period. In 1792, celebrations recognizing the 300th anniversary of his landing in the New World🌎 took place in New York City and other US cities. President Benjamin Harrison called upon the people of the United States to join in the celebration of Columbus on the 400th anniversary of the event. During the anniversary of 1892, teachers, preachers, poets, and politicians used the day to teach ideals of patriotism. These patriotic teachings were framed around themes of support for war, citizenship boundaries, the importance of loyalty to the nation, and celebrating social progress. #naplumbingllc #northamericanplumbing #masterplumber #repairs #toilets #sinks #showers #bathtubs #kitchens #bathrooms #pipes #disposals #sinkerator #quality #meridianville #toney #hamptoncove #madison #huntsville #hazelgreen

Can any of my actuarial or mathematician geeky type friends validate that: “Tens of Millions” is correct - Calling Bullshit (Again) Citing my mates at Google “tens of millions” is a phrase used to mention something huge in number. It could be any number above 10 million & below 100 million Currently 26+ Million in Oz In 2021, there were 315,705 babies born to 311,360 mothers in Australia. Let’s say work on 200k per year for the last 100 years and we get tens of millions of babies not boat people As of 2023, Australia's net overseas migration was 152.2 thousand people. In the 50s Agreements were reached with Britain, some European countries and with the International Refugee Organisation to encourage migrants, including displaced persons from war-torn Europe. By 1950, almost 200,000 people had arrived We would have to have this same number each and every year to get 2 million per decade ( and we didn’t ) them every decade for 7 decades gets us to 14 million - I guess if that were true ( but its just sensational maths ) Few of Craig’s teams own stats below Happy to be corrected as I was really bad at Maths ( Year 10 was the best five years of my life !) https://lnkd.in/gt3ryznT

Signing ‘The Foster Family’ on the Welcome Wall at the National Maritime Museum, which celebrates the tens of millions of Australians who arrived in Australia, mostly by boat. My family came in the early 1800’s. By boat. And yet we attack, demonise and exclude others who do so. People have a right to seek safety and we need to acknowledge our responsibility to show the world how they should be welcomed.

🎅🎁 Did you find any surprises this morning? 🎁🎅 Today is St. Nicholas Day, a tradition that celebrates the generosity and kindness of the 4th-century bishop of Myra, who is also known as the patron saint of children and sailors. On the eve of St. Nicholas Day, children in many countries leave their shoes by the fireplace, the door, or the window, hoping that St. Nicholas will fill them with gifts, sweets, and coins. This year, the Clearview Relocation team were delighted to find some chocolate coins. Do you celebrate St. Nicholas Day? What did you find in your shoe?! #stnicholasday #shoesurprises #gifts #christmas #tradition. #clearviewchristmascountdown #christmas #christmas2023 #christmascheer #Clearviewrelocation #Clearviewimmigration #clearviewconsultancy #relocationservices #relocationspecialist #relocationexperts #clearviewway #clearviewconsultancy #relocations #relocationtips #relocationassistance #relocation #Immigration #visaimmigration

This Sunday is St Patrick's Day, a day that commemorates the death of Saint Patrick, the foremost patron saint of Ireland. It is truly a day for celebrating Irish culture and heritage 💚 At EA, we are no strangers to celebrating different cultures and will always jump at an opportunity to learn something new. For example, did you know that Saint Patrick wasn't actually Irish? He was actually born in Roman Britain, which is now believed to be somewhere in modern day Scotland or Wales! Find that interesting? Here are our top tips for learning about traditions from other cultures: 🧑🎓 Do Your Own Research: - Try to learn about traditions from another culture using sources like articles, documentaries, and even social media! Understanding the context behind cultural practices will enhance your appreciation and enjoyment of them should you ever get to experience them in person! 👋 Talk to a Local: - Engaging with someone that honours a celebration or tradition as part of their culture will always offer valuable insight! Interacting with locals in this way will not only provide a firsthand explanation of traditions, but also help you to foster connections all over the world! 🧡 Show Respect and Keep an Open Mind: - Acknowledging and respecting differences is so important when learning something new about traditions from another culture. Showing that you are open to learning, and making sure you are being sensitive when asking questions will lead to positive interactions, and, more importantly, will help you to better understand traditions from other cultures! #teamendeavours #eacommunity #culture #team #adventureawaits #charity #stpatricksday

the Native American community in the San Francisco Bay Area: 🌉 Supporting Native American Communities in the Bay Area 🌉 The San Francisco Bay Area is home to a vibrant tapestry of cultures, including the rich heritage of Native American tribes. It’s crucial that we acknowledge and support the ongoing efforts to protect and empower these communities. Here’s how the Bay Area is making a difference: 📜 Legal Advocacy: California Indian Legal Services and the Native American Rights Fund are at the forefront, providing legal support to ensure tribal sovereignty and cultural preservation. 🎨 Cultural Enrichment: The California Native American Heritage Commission safeguards sacred sites, while local museums and cultural centers like the Oakland Museum and the California Academy of Sciences celebrate Native American history. 🩺 Healthcare Access: The Native American Health Center offers comprehensive health services, ensuring the well-being of the Native American population in San Francisco, Oakland, and Alameda. 🎓 Educational Opportunities: Bay Area Indian Education Centers and university programs at UC Berkeley and San Francisco State University provide educational support and promote Native American studies. 🤝 Community Engagement: The Intertribal Friendship House and the American Indian Child Resource Center foster community through traditional arts, education, and advocacy. 🗣️ Inclusive Policy Making: Through tribal consultation policies and advisory committee representation, Native American voices are integral in shaping policies that affect their communities. Let’s continue to support these initiatives and the reservations like Graton Rancheria and Lytton Rancheria, which serve as cultural hubs for the Coast Miwok and Southern Pomo tribes. By standing together, we can ensure the rights, culture, and well-being of Native American communities are upheld. #NativeAmericanRights #CulturalHeritage #BayAreaSupport #CommunityAdvocacy https://lnkd.in/g8nVDspi
