maybe one should take their negative opinions else where, there are children who can read watching this video ...... after all it was intended to be watched by children ..... not negatively picked apart by adults who have nothing better to do with there time .... btw my children love this video not because of kwanza but because they love to dance please do not ruin it for children with your inappropriate posts
Do many of you guys have issues celebrating 4th of July which is independence day in the usa ......... they were celebrating independence while having slave.... WTF we celebrate thanksgiving which was the Slater of the natives of this land
@0neofthem Actually you are the disgrace for your ignorant comment. Further more Christmas has pagan traditions and rituals but I bet that doesn't stop you from celebrating it or Easter for that matter you classless ignoramus
first of all why is the holiday fake? what holiday wasn't invented by someone and then a bunch of people started following it? but more importantly, what culture is this supposed to represent? seemingly some sort of "traditional African culture" but what is the berimbau from Brazil doing there?
@pmurray0107 actually south africa,the berimbau is approximately 8000yrs old.San hunters would string calabash to thier bows as resonators.the dance im not sure.It feels,and looks Zulu. but remember kwanzaa is a collective celebration for all displaced africans. peace fyi/ mestre calbelo playing berimbau hes brazilian.
@0neofthem What about the 4th of July?, ok ,maybe not marxist ,but who else? would it be better to be ....lets say,christian racist felons.Like christmas or CHRIST MASS. why santa if" jesus" is the reason.then again jesus was a felon according to Rome.Rome executed him for his "crimes" and then worshiped his mother,and replaced him with pedaphelic St.Nicolas. NOT MARXIST, but racist felons.the origin of Valentines day.someones heart was removed and mailed to his mistress. ill take kwanza
@frstypuffpow9790 I know what a noun is. Did you just "graduate" from eighth grade? Thanks for trying to "edumacate" me. It is propaganda in the sense that it is a subtle brainwashing of our kids.
@frstypuffpow9790 I have a doctorate. Not in any type of history, but still... I'm an educated person. Here's what multiculturalism does. It destroy's a nation's sense of having it's own unique culture and tries to replace it with cultures of other lands. Those cultural traditions are fine where they originated, but there used to be a unique "American culture". Now our children are being taught that the only traditions that are important are from somewhere else. That is unfair.

Sesame Street USED to be great in the 70's, when it was new. They weren't trying to force-feed children multicultural propaganda, much less using fake holidays. Now they want to turn all American kids bilingual and have gay characters. Unhealthy. Why would hispanic kids ever learn English if we enable them to get by during childhood on just spanish. Then look what happens when they grow up and try getting jobs.
@nritnrat your thought is too limited. exposure to other people, languages and culture is not just about assimilating to hegemony and the dominant culture. Its also about those with certain societal and political privileges and dominance gaining respect and tolerance for cultures that differ from their own norms in hopes that people don't become bigots with ethnocentric views like yours.
All of you guys think this is cute? This is so scary to me because that puppet can move his whole body! Elmo moves like one of those dancing demon spirits!
busysignal2006 kwanzaa is not a fake holiday. O and his name is not ron karenga it is maulana karenga. and how do you that he tortured two. F**K YOU ALL
I love the videoclip! Well done! Great music & dancing, even Elmo dances like a pro! Keep up the good work. "Happy Kwanzaa" & all my best wishes for 2010.
kwanzaa is fake holiday created by ron karenga, a radical marxist who tortured two women by stripping them naked whipping them with electric cords, putting their toes in vice grips and pouring detergent in their mouths. what a wonderful celebration
yep. A made up holiday. Some black guy from Maryland created it. It's a tradition for African and some African American families to recognize their ancestors and celebrate year round, so in actuality, Kwanzaa is not needed.
Kwanzaa was founded by a kidnapping torturer. look it up

Kwanzaa is a 'holiday" that is celebrated by about
.65% of the US population.
That's less than 1%.
Yet the liberal media portray this "holiday" as widely celebrated by blacks when it is not, and totally unheard of in Africa.

I guess it's better to have fabricated "culture" than none at all.
Even when it's only about one in nineteen Afro-Americans who actually celebrates this "holiday".

Just because its "fabricated" doesnt make African-American culture itself fabricated.
