>>94570103>why do black people celebrate July 4thThe same reason my atheist ass "celebrates" Christmas:
1) i dont give a shit about the christian origins of the holiday, I'm in it for the family gatherings, the meals, the present-giving, the secular aspects of the holiday.
2) lets face it, the secular bits have taken over, for most of america we're not celebrating the supposed birth of christ, we're enjoying a winter break from the workplace and decorating the house. with pagan pinetrees, mistletoe, and wreathes I might add.
