[Bob Corbett <corbetre@webster.edu>]

From: Haiti 1804 <ayiti1804@hotmail.com>

I received the following inquiry from a student diversity board about Haiti / 
Haitians:


1)       What holidays do Haitians celebrate during the December or January? 
(Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanza, etc)

2)       What is unique about this (or these) celebration(s) compared to 
traditional American celebrations?

3)       What are typical family traditions during those holidays?

4)       What kind of foods are typically served during the holidays?

5)       Anything else you feel like sharing?


Does anyone have any suggested replies for the students, please?
