Kwanzaa 2022!
What is Kwanzaa?
Kwanzaa is a non-religious annual tradition that celebrates seven principles that can help guide us to be our best selves in community with others:
1. Unity
2. Self-Determination
3. Collective Work and Responsibility
4. Cooperative Economics
5. Purpose
6. Creativity
7. Faith in our collective humanity
Kwanzaa is celebrated from December 26 to January 1, culminating in a communal feast called Karamu, usually on the sixth day.
Kwanzaa is not an African tradition. It is rather an African-American cultural tradition that was created by activist Maulana Karenga as a way to help reconnect African-Americans to their cultural roots in Africa.
Kwanzaa is based on African harvest festival traditions from various parts of West and Southeast Africa. Kwanzaa was first celebrated in 1966.
