Interesting.
IIRC “kwanza” was invented by some scumbag habitual felon.
Happy Boxing Day
Kwanzaa huh?
Now that’s some kind of B.S.
When they look at you weird, tell them it's Swahili. It's the proper response to 'Happy Kwanzaa'.
(Don't tell them it means 'cow dung'...)
Rochester NY makes a big deal of this. Of course, free food helps to make it a success. It’ll go away....just like....Festivus. LOL
I love racial black nationalism.
Si I be quanza’ed left, right and center.
There is not one thing wrong with the fact that I am involved in completely fictional cultural appropriation.
And I love to dance.
SO!
Happy Kwanza!
Hanuka , take a back sheet!
(Kwanza even has a minora!)

Had no idea about Patty Hearst, the 7-headed snake/dragon/whatever it was and Kwanzaa principles.
The things I’m learning this morning!
‘Twas the night before Kwanzaa And all through the ‘hood,
Maulana Karenga was up to no good.
He’d tortured a woman and spent time in jail.
He needed a new scam that just wouldn’t fail.
(”So what if I stuck some chick’s toe in a vice?
Nobody said revolution was nice!”)
The Sixties were over. Now what would he do?
Why, he went back to school — so that’s “Dr.” to you!
He once ordered shootouts at UCLA
Now he teaches Black Studies just miles away.
Then to top it all off, the good Doctor’s new plan
Was to get rid of Christmas and piss off The Man.
Karenga invented a fake holiday.
He called the thing Kwanza. “Hey, what’s that you say?
“You don’t get what’s ‘black’ about Maoist baloney?
You say that my festival’s totally phony?
“Who cares if corn isn’t an African crop?
Who cares if our harvest’s a month or two off?
Who cares if Swahili’s not our mother tongue?
A lie for The Cause never hurt anyone!
“Umoja! Ujima! Kujichagulia, too!
Collectivist crap never sounded so cool!
Those guilty white liberals — easy to fool.
Your kids will now celebrate Kwanzaa in school!”
And we heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight:
“Happy Kwanzaa to all, except if you’re white!”

Does anyone have black friends who celebrate Kwanzaa. I don’t and that’s out of 7 families
A friend of mine in Sacramento was in us at UCLA and even slept with Mere fact. Not unusual. He attracted women even though he was abusive
He intended to draw millions away from Christmas to destroy the white mans holiday. She thought him high iq but a megliomaniac
Actually they did, and they worked with Castro's network and white leftist groups towards this end, but various factions of Marxists (CP, SWP, Maoists, sub-groups of Maoists. . .) often disagreed on ideology and tactics, leading to splits and rivalries such as those with Karenga. The FBI agent supervising the COINTELPROs tasked with the civil rights movement and the BPP, William C. Sullivan--who was by then a CIA asset within the FBI--encouraged these rivalries.
This event would totally disappear if we didn’t publicize it each year.
I was doing just fine not hearing about it.
Thanks Town Hall.
Oh, sorta like ‘stinko de piehole’? A non holiday foisted on fools by someone making a buck. Still looking for investors to open a giant store built like a quonset hut and call it the Kwanzaa Hut. You know for all your holiday needs.
I say FESTIVUS FOR THE REST OF US
