Have a safe and happy Halloween, CARDS!

 
Happy Halloween

Please think about this year's Halloween costume. ​Remember a culture is not a costume. Answer these questions when deciding what costume to wear: Wearing a funny costume? Is the humor based on “making fun” of real people, human traits or cultures?
