This video below is cute!! 🤗

Tonight at midnight (10 pm Pacific time), Mexico 🇲🇽 declares its Independence as a re-enactment, to commemorate its independence.

It’s tradition, that only the sitting president at the stroke of midnight, gives the independence yell...
For many people who thought, Cinco de Mayo was our independence day, it is not. Mexico’s day of Independence is actually September 16th, which is why the president declares it at midnight.
Everyone calls it #GritoDeIndependencia but it’s actually The Cry of Dolores. So 210 years ago Roman Catholic priest, Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, rang his church bell and gave the call to arms that triggered the Mexican War of Independence.
