A holiday developed by a Dr. Maulana "Ron" Karenga, a black militant, Marxist, and convicted felon.
Just five years after this, he was convicted of torturing two black women to death.
Observed from December 26 to January 1, Kwanzaa is based on a mixture of East African harvest rituals, called "first fruits" by Karenga and 1960's radicalism. This is in spite of the fact most slaves came from West Africa.
Viewed as an "alternative" to Christmas, it, nonetheless, is based on race, and not in faith.
I really don't care if Kwanzaa is celebrated, just don't let the PCcrowd force it down our throats.
A song that is relatively good that is remixed by certain individuals such as Kidz Bop and Bassnectar to make the songsound even worse than it already is.
"Hey have you heard about that new Ke$ha cover to Promises by Nero?"
"Yeah I heard it's such a Kwanzaa Carol."
1)A made up piece of shitholiday steeped in all the deepest traditions of Sweetest Day or Secretary's Day.
2)A holiday for African Americans that no African American observes or understands.
Bob: "I plan to celebrate Kwanzaa this year!"
Larry: "That's swell! Let's run out to the store for Kwanzaa cards and decorations!"
Bob: "Alas, we cannot, for nobody carries Kwanzaa merchandise because nobody cares about or celebrates it, even the people it is made for!"
Larry: "Too bad. I guess Christmas will have to be enough this year."
