Today we honor the bravery & ingenuity of the Navajo Code Talkers, who used their native language to create an unbreakable code that helped secure Allied victories in WWII.
Their legacy is a testament to the power of diversity, resilience, and patriotism.

Arabic can be a difficult language to learn, but using slang words like “Yallah,” which means “Let’s go,” or “Akeed,” which means “sure,” can go a long way to helping you feel like a true local.

Why do we love Star Wars? Perhaps it's because they employ ancient Greek themes about heroes with dubious parentage, mysterious teachers, and epic adventures.... ow.ly/9Rm330jPZjr #Maythe4thBeWithYou
