Description

KWANZAA!- KWANZAA is a Pan-African holiday that celebrates family, community, and culture. Celebrated from 26 December thru 1 January, its origins are in the first harvest celebrations of Africa from which it takes its name. The name Kwanza is derived from the phrase "Matunda ya kwanza" which means "first fruits" in Swahili, a Pan-African language that is the most widely spoken African language. We must remember that the seasons are in reverse south of the Equator. Even though it is cold in North America, It is Summertime and harvest season below the equator. The Father of KWANZAA is Dr. Mulana Karenga. KWANZAA with the extra "A" is also an acronym abbreviating the 7 youth participants of the first experience.
