it’s really wild to me that, when you really think about it, all the #xmas celebrations that we think of as American, came out of #nyc; and a lot of those celebrations were basically based on traditions from #Ukraine and the Baltics:

- yule logs
- bell ringing
- #redwork #embroidery

the other part of this story is that the most famous American #Christmas songs were written by Jews. ironically, there’s a Canadian documentary about it:
