  • This video was wonderful. It is terribly sad how much racism is directed towards Kwanzaa (just by reading some of these comments I am disgusted). Why is it that America's media only wants to see negative depictions of African Americans? There is nothing wrong with someone celebrating their ancestry especially if their ancestors built this country through their blood, sweat and tears.

  • 0:36 Everybody hates Chris!

  • @WahidahFowler thankyou someone who understands

  • kwanzaa is not a holiday its a celebration because it isn't religious. its about celebrating our heritage and furthering our love for ourselves and other african americans. its not extreme, it isnt about hate, and this video was great. It can be as simple as sitting around a table and talking about each day with family, as my family has done for years, or more traditional with special clothing and ceremonies. lighten up people.

  • Since loving and appreciating ourselves brings out such hateful reactions, I'm more sure than ever that celebrating KWANZAA is important and valuable.

  • @Bronxloyalist There is absolutely nothing in the celebration that says to hate anybody. We can celebrate whatever we want to.

  • Their hearts were in the right place. Karamu is on the 7th day. It was nicely done.

  • @79pensacola how many indians did your grandpa kiled

  • Ok. Just wow. I came to watch a simple video and I see all these hateful comments. If you all dislike the holiday then don't watch a video whose title is "Sesame Street: Kwanzaa." You all act like this video was forced upon you. Secondly, I bet half of you don't even know why you celebrate Christmas. Do you even go to church or do you just wait for presents to arrive under your Christmas tree? It's called culture people. The holiday educates people on their past and prepares them for the future.

  • @richard199522 Well first of all. Techinacally it is a white country since it is predominately white and has the same such values of old europe. Second of all your spelling sucks, it took me a second to understand what you were saying. Third of all don't put Jesus into the equation since your pagan made up religion was the actual racist one since the extremist blacks couldn't stand celebrating a holiday with whites.

  • wow anti white because they can't stand to share the same holiday as us, and ripping off the jews holiday. Suck it ass holes
