Happy Halloween!
On the formation of Hallowe’en, or Samain:
“Samain is the Old Irish name (Modern Irish Samhain) for a festival celebrated on 31 October to 1 November in the standard western calendar. In contemporary popular understanding, this date marks the beginning of the Celtic year. . . . The date is important in both medieval literature and modern folklore. As a transitional period between years or, at the very least, between seasons, the eve of Samain was a liminal time in which boundaries between the mundane world and the Otherworld were more likely to be crossed. Magical events and supernatural beings were more likely to be encountered on Samain or one of the other quarter days …”

A bunch of people have asked whether there will be an "Our People, Our Year" calendar for 2023. The answer is unfortunately no.
However, the great folks at The White People's Press will have you covered. https://www.whitepeoplepress.com/product/2023-jumbo-calendar-mythology-folklore/

We have an important new initiative: The TWPP Book Club.
In 2020 we published My Mirror Tells A Story by Spencer J. Quinn and Anthony Coulter—the first illustrated children’s book explicitly for White people, as well as the first full-color book published in our community. Shortly after, the print-on-demand (POD) company printed hundreds of copies for themselves and began selling it for lower than they would print it for us.
Help us stay POD-free and continue printing the finest books, ones that will last and you can pass down to your children, by joining the TWPP Book Club.
Read more about it here:

Note to friends and long-time supporters: you're already in the Book Club so contact for more information.

The Story of our People
Thank you very much to The White People’s Press for my copy of The Story of our People. What an absolutely beautiful book. I had a lump in my throat while reading it. It’s such a shame that books like this are few and far between.
From TWPP website:
“Children in the West are being raised in a cultural environment that teaches them to despise their history, their heritage, and themselves, and it is the duty of parents to counter that. For our children to grow up to be healthy and proud men and women, we have to provide them with the resources, tools, and messages that will enable that. The Story of Our People is a positive step in this direction, and tells the story in the title: our own. Who we are, where we come from, what our ancestors accomplished, and what we should be grateful for and strive to carry on.”
