“Kwanza is the one day of the year that the negroes DON’T air their grievances.”

Why would we need a guide for something we completely ignore and care less about?

“I’m in shape.
Round’s a shape. “

Cylindrical in my case.

I’m am at a Marriott resort in Florida for the holidays. At the pool they ran a trivia contest and every other question was about Kwanza. Everyone of course was cheating and googling the answers.

My Black pool friends knew none of the Kanza answers until they looked them up.

Activity director threw in a few Hanuka questions for diversity.

gave up.

>>That’s not exactly true. A more accurate statement would be that MOST Mexicans don’t celebrate Cinco do Mayo. The State of Puebla does celebrate Cinco de Mayo, including festivals and re-enactments of the Battle of Puebla.<<

Kind of a technicality and doesn’t really change my point about how clueless this idiot is (not you — the author). MOST Americans don’t celebrate California’s Admissions Day either.

Kwanzaa guide for crack ass crackers:

Festivus- The day of the airing of grievances.

Every day of the negro year- The days of airing of grievances.

Kwanzaa- The day of not airing of grievances.

White Friday (day after Kwanza)- All you can grab for a dollar sale on all weaves, fake gold chains, and Kools.

Please print this helpful guide and post it on your refrigerator next to your "Diversity is our Strength" bumper sticker.

From my observations Kwanzaa is dead.

It appears to have one the way of Festivus, which seems to have reached its peak during the George W. Bush presidency. Festivus was actually celebrated at college fraternities and the like, but I never knew--or knew of--anyone who actually celebrated Kwanzaa.

You can listen to this nice man say it here.


It’s a condescending tone like that which makes CNN so popular with people.

Here’s all I need to know:

“Kwanzaa is an invented holiday to celebrate a particular race.

It is exclusionary and there is nothing spiritual about it

We are all created by one almighty parent amd Gid makes no distinction for his universal love.

Kwanzaa invites no one but those who have no ties to their distant past or culture.

Besides, ain’t no one moving from America to any place their ancestors came from.

Haha. I may have to steal that one.

I like to be politically correct.

“Angry Kwanzaa” is more appropriate ...

The guy who invented the “holiday” is really amazing.

How can you be a felon, teaching at a university, and make up a fictional topic, in this case a holiday, that makes it to a US postal stamp?

Gotta admit, hell of a ponzi scheme.

And so this is Kwanza
And what have you done
The rioting is over
So put away your Gun

And so this is Kwanza
Quit being pissed off
The Trumpster is POTUS
Thank God that Hillary lost

Have a wonderful Kwanza
Don’t fear the New Year
Just keep hating Whitey
Obama might reappear
