Cinco de Mayo is more widely celebrated in the United States then in Mexico.

Its about a Mexican victory at the Battle of Puebla, May 5, 1862 against French forces attempting to make Mexico a colony.

This is significant to the United States because as you know at the time we were in the middle of a War between the States and unable to aid Mexico in enforcing the Monro doctrine.

It is not specifically a Hispanic thing.
