Happy Labor Day!

30 August

Labor Day, observed on the first Monday in September, is more than just a long weekend or the unofficial end of summer. It’s a day dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the hard work, dedication, and achievements of American workers who have shaped the nation.

  • Labor Day Origins: Labor Day was first celebrated on September 5, 1882, in New York City by the Central Labor Union. It was created to honor the contributions of American workers and the labor movement, recognizing the importance of laborers in building the nation’s prosperity.
  • Labor Day and Fashion: The phrase “no white after Labor Day” stems from a 19th-century custom. Traditionally, white clothing was worn in the summer to stay cool, and after Labor Day, darker clothes were worn as the weather cooled. This unwritten fashion rule has become less strict over the years, but it still gets mentioned today.
  • Labor Day and the Start of Fall: Labor Day unofficially marks the end of summer in the United States. Many schools start their academic year right after Labor Day, and the holiday weekend is often considered the last chance for a summer getaway. It’s also the beginning of the fall sports season, especially football.

As you enjoy this Labor Day, take a moment to reflect on the hard work that keeps the country moving forward. Whether it’s a day off or a day of work, Labor Day is a tribute to the spirit of labor that fuels the American dream.
