Kwanzaa is a fake holiday, made up in the 1960's by a black racist cult leader and convicted felon, who thought that blacks shouldn't celebrate a white man's holiday. He took some African-sounding words, and made up some principles that sounded good, and manufactured a holiday based thereon. This holiday has no connection to anything genuinely African. It's really nothing more than a celebration of the ego and racism of its creator.

You sound so stupid. You obviously have done no research from credible sources. But anyway, I couldn't care less what you think. I enjoy celebrating kwanzaa and the principles. If you don't like it, so be it. Do you and move on.

Keep on niggin'. Kwanza is a made up holiday.

So??? Who cares if it is made up. All holidays are made up. So what? I like the holidays because of the principles expressed during the week. If you don't want to celebrate it, DON'T. No big deal. And did you say "niggin"? What a dumb bitch you are. Stay off my page.

Yes that's one of my purposes also is to question why people make up ridiculous stereotypes and why do they beleive those things and where did they come from? And why do people tend to take pride in negative things.

I'm glad you're doing the Kwanzaa series. A lot of people don't know or understand the principles of Kwanzaa. I am the Messenger. I speak on behalf of those who have no voice. I advocate for what's right regardless of my opponent. I also mentor & empower young teen girls. By doing so, I help to eradicate the perpetuation of generational curses within the Black family. As a result, I put money & resources back into the Black community. Education, Liberation, Transformation & Restoration.
