Cinco de Mayo is often misunderstood, but its story is one of resilience, strength, and culture.

Today marks the Battle of Puebla, when a smaller Mexican army achieved an unexpected victory. Over time, it has also become a way to celebrate Mexican heritage and the communities that continue to honor it.
