@dixmoor Christianity is the so called religion of your oppressors. Dont cling to that falacy and embrace back your true spiritual paths and culture. I am white but I am fully against imperialism of any kind, so called religious or else.I support people to follow their ancestors ways. I rejected christianity a long time ago & now follow Hinduism (which true name is Sanatan Dharma - the Universal path of Wisdom) and also I follow ancient European Paganism. Nice to see videos that explain Kwaanza

When I light the candle each day, how long should I keep the candle burning?

Grow up, I've celebrate it and have I died?

You don't speak for the rest of us and also, it is right that African people celebrate our own ideas and achivements.

Not just Kwanzaa, but other's that identify with us.

Voodoo. Stay away from Kwanzaa. Before 1966, we id not do this ritual that goes against God. We have the gospel. We do no need African rituals in our gospel. Some have been duped into believng this antichristian practice of burning candles and pouring libations for dead spirits. Beware of witchcraft. Study the origin of Kwanzaa. It was created by an ex-felon who does not believe in God!
