Vice President Kamala Harris' Kwanzaa message has sparked backlash on Tuesday, as some social media users ripped the vice president after comparing the holiday post to her Christmas greeting a day earlier.
Kwanzaa begins on the day after Christmas as a celebration of African-American culture and heritage. The seven-day holiday was created in 1966 by Dr. Maulana Karenga, a professor and activist. It became more popular in the 1980s and 1990s. Former President Bill Clinton was the first U.S. president to officially recognize Kwanzaa. According to the National Museum of African American History & Culture, celebration concepts are expressed in the Swahili language, as the holiday reinforces the Nguzo Saba, or seven principles, with each day focusing on one.

Scumbag is as Scumbag does...
Kwanzaa is as much BS as COVID, climate change and Biden’s “election”. The foods that are part of this bologna aren’t even available in Africa
“ was created in 1966 by Dr. Maulana Karenga, a professor and activist..”
Interesting way to describe a guy who enjoyed raping and beating women.
L
I guess Kwanzaa is spliced together.
Whoreizontal Harris perpetuating an EVIL collective.
What did she say? “Weez be eatin’ on some fried chicky, colluds, black-eye peez, cone-bread and chitlins.”
they can push all these made up holidays but nobody pays attention...
Dr. Maulana Karenga, a professor and activist.... riiiggghhhttt.
In 1971, Karenga was sentenced to one to ten years in prison on counts of felony assault and false imprisonment. One of the victims gave testimony of how Karenga and other men tortured her and another woman. The woman described having been stripped naked and beaten with an electrical cord. Karenga’s estranged wife, Brenda Lorraine Karenga, testified that she sat on the other woman’s stomach while another man forced water into her mouth through a hose.
Stupid skank.
Kwanzaa candelabra looks like a Jewish menorah, which is even more interesting because candles were introduced to Africa by Arab merchants.
Kwanza rejects the white European male ideology that genocide, rape, slavery and torture are wrong, for the pre-enlightenment idea that these things depend on context.
I’m sure all her Tamil and Jewish family members just love hanging around the kwanza candles. Especially “Fweedom....”
Didn’t she say she was celebrating kwanza before it was even invented?
What phonies.
Yeah, that Mau Mau Doctor (like Jill) Karenga. He also stole the last name Karenga from an unrelated Bantu tribe.
All liberal Karrens were happy.
Kwanzaa is based on East African “traditions. Most Black Americans are descended from West Africans. So Kwanzaa is like celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with Gyros, Uzo, and Greek Dancing…
Patty Hearst calling. She wants her Symbionese Liberation Army holiday back.
I observed Kwanzaa in my customary way, not knowing what it was or when it was. Does that make me a bad person?
“...celebration concepts are expressed in the Swahili language...”

Two Jaily birds,
And a Marxist in a red tree.
On the third day of Kwanzaa Karenga gave to me
Three ’Lectric cords.
