Some reflections on Mother's Day in Cuba
The practice became law when, in 1914, the United States Congress approved the date as Mother's Day and declared it a national holiday.
Around 1911 this special day was celebrated in places like Canada, China, Japan, South America and Africa and currently dozens of countries dedicate the second Sunday of May to honor those who gave us life.
In our country, Santiago de las Vegas has been considered the place where the festivities began en masse. However, recent revelations show that the merit corresponds to the locality of Puerto Padre, promoted by Dr. Eduardo Queral Mayo.
It happened on April 6, 1920, a month before Francisco Montoto paid homage to them at the Instruction and Recreation Center of the Havana town, where it was also held at an early date. A year later it was held in Havana.
On May 10, 1919, Queral was initiated into the Los Perseverantes lodge in Puerto Padre, where in early 1920 he filed a motion to declare the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day.
According to the press reports of the time, on April 22, 1921, at the proposal of the journalist Víctor Muñoz, the celebration of this date was given official status, upon being approved by the Havana City Council, and in 1928 it was extended to the entire the nation.
