Labor Day in American Samoa

Labor Day in American Samoa is celebrated similarly to the United States, as it is an unincorporated territory of the U.S. The day honors the contributions of workers and the labor movement and is observed on the first Monday in September.

History

  • Originates from the labor union movements in the late 19th century in the United States.
  • Became a federal holiday in 1894 under President Grover Cleveland.

Traditions

  • Parades: Similar to other places, parades may be held to celebrate workers and their rights.
  • Family Gatherings: It's a time for family reunions and picnics, where traditional Samoan food may be enjoyed.
  • Sports Events: Sporting events and tournaments are often organized.

Activities

  • Many people take advantage of the long weekend for relaxation or travel.
  • Some participate in community service or attend events that highlight worker solidarity and achievements.

Labor Day in American Samoa reflects both local traditions and American influences, serving as a bridge between Samoan culture and its association with U.S. history.
