    Gruppen-Newsletter: Independence Day Mexico
    The Grito de Dolores:

    In the early hours of September 16th, 1810, Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, a priest in the small town of Dolores, Guanajuato, rang the church bell to gather the townspeople. He called for the people of Mexico to rise up against the Spanish Crown, thus initiating Mexico's War of Independence. The country did not achieve independence until 1821, but it is this event, known as the Grito de Dolores which is commemorated every year in town squares across Mexico.

    The words of the Grito may vary, but they go something like this:

    ¡Vivan los heroes que nos dieron patria! ¡Viva!
    ¡Viva Hidalgo! ¡Viva!
    ¡Viva Morelos! ¡Viva!
    ¡Viva Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez! ¡Viva!
    ¡Viva Allende! ¡Viva!
    ¡Vivan Aldama y Matamoros! ¡Viva!
    ¡Viva nuestra independencia! ¡Viva!
    ¡Viva Mexico! ¡Viva!
    ¡Viva Mexico! ¡Viva!
    ¡Viva Mexico! ¡Viva!

    En celebration of this special day for Mexico today, I wish you all freedom of mind and independence in the world.

    Que "Viva Mexico!"
