Christmas Trees are an iconic part of the holiday season. Every child loves the day that their family decorates the tree. They are used to put up memories that you have shared with the ones you love, but have you ever wondered why we put up the tree in the first place? Why we put up Christmas trees?

Saturday, January 19, 2019, marked another day of Napa marching around in a part of town chanting, waving signs and speaking out. The Napa Valley Women’s March. This year’s march was as well attended as the three other marches. Men, Women, Children, and Teenagers all joined together for one purpose: seeking equality for all. Many were, like always, holding signs about women’s rights, and president Donald Trump. New signs showed the faces of the 102 women taking the 453 seats in the U.S House of Congress such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the youngest woman ever elected to Congress. Rashida Tlaib is the first Muslim woman to serve Congress. These are just two examples of the 102 women...
