| Tag der Arbeit - Dienstag 1 Mai, 2018 Weltliche Feiertage : Chicago, Samstg, den 1. Mai 1886: 350 000 Arbeiter streiken für einen Acht-Stunden-Tag. Gewerbeindustrien wurden landesweit lahmgelegt. Die Polizei löste die Demonstrationen an jenem Montag auf. Am darauffolgenden Tag streikt Chicago immer noch. Als die Polizei den Protestmarsch auflösen wollte, explodierte eine Bombe. Es kostete zwölf Menschen das Leben, unter denen sieben Polizisten. Acht Anarchisten wurden verurteilt und hingerichtet. Im Jahre 1889 traf sich das Socialist International Movement in Paris und erklärte diesen Tag zum internationalen Tag der Arbeit . Die Soviets, wie auch die Nazis, folgen diesem Beispiel. In Frankreich, unter dem Regime von Vichy (1940-1944), wurde dieses Fest zum Labour Day umbenannt.

| Muttertag - Sonntag 13 Mai, 2018 Karten/Blumen : Mother’s day has evolved in many countries in different ways. This is because mother’s day has different origins in different countries and therefore occurs on different days in the year.
One school of thought claims that this day emerged from the custom of mother worship in ancient Greece. Mother worship which kept a festival to Cybele, a great mother of gods, and Rhea, the wife of Cronus, was held on March 15 to March 18 around Asia Minor. They insist that this custom spread around the world.
Mothering Sunday is the celebration of motherhood in the United Kingdom. It is also known as Mid-lent Sunday, Rose Sunday and Laetare Sunday. It originally comes from the Victorian practice of allowing servants to return home to visit their mothers on this day.
In the United States, Julia Ward Howe (May 27, 1819 - October 17, 1910) was a prominent American abolitionist, social activist, and poet. Howe’s Battle Hymn of the Republic was first published in the Atlantic Monthly in 1862 and quickly became one of the most popular songs for the Union during the American Civil War. After the war she focused her activities on the causes of Pacifism and women’s suffrage. In 1870 she was the first to proclaim Mother’s Day, with her Mother’s Day Proclamation. U.S. President Woodrow Wilson approved Mother’s Day in 1914
