Do you know the history of Kwanzaa?

Yes ... and it's a pathetic, quasi-African celebration of valid personal attributes that didn't exist until the 70's. Very few, if any, who dress in native garb, and do the contrived native dances, and play the Conga drums have never been to, nor do they know anyone who actually came from Africa.

I'd just love to see Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson, Bill Cosby, the ACLU and the liberal leaning politicians react to an All White celebration because we 'need a holiday we can call our own to help us feel better'!

I'm not a racist, but that exactly what, an all black, all purple or all anything celebration, based on absolutely nothing, draws as a response from open minded people in the non-entitlement program using general public, think of anything limited to one group exclusively. Sorry!

In 1966 Ron Karenga created Kwanzaa while in California, as the leader of the black nationalist United Slaves Organization (also known as the "US Organization"), in order to give African Americans an alternative holiday to Christmas.

The name Kwanzaa derives from the Swahili phrase "matunda ya kwanza", meaning "first fruits". The choice of Swahili, an East African language, reflects its status as a symbol of Pan-Africanism, especially in the 1960s, though most African-Americans have West African ancestry.

yes.

what would an all white celebration look like? the only image i can get into my head is the Klan chanting around a cross. not very peaceful.

anyway, Kwanzaa is crap. if you're trying to rile up blacks, you'll have to try something else because most blacks don't celebrate it. It's like offering a Jewish person proof that christmas is based off a pagan holiday

lol, no never heard of it until krusty said 'krazy kwanzaa' on the simpsons. i dont even know what religion it is, the symbol is just a map of africa. i think it was made up to give black people to celebrate about something when they dont want to conform to christmas, no histroy to it before the 60's

Yeah! Created by a real sick thug in the sixties!
