Every year, brands worldwide roll out campaigns celebrating what they often call Chinese New Year, but the term is exclusionary and fails to reflect the diverse cultures celebrating the holiday.
This is super insightful! I had been using the phrases ‘Lunar New Year’ and ‘Chinese New Year’ interchangeably for the longest time; but now that I know that the holiday is celebrated across several cultures I will definitely be more intentional about saying Lunar New Year from now on.
My Chinese Zodiac is the Snake btw! 🐍✨ I’d love to love to know yours, if you’re open to sharing!
