The holiday of Kwanzaa begins on Monday with a celebration in Los Angeles that will also mark the 50th anniversary of the holiday’s first observance, in 1966.

The airing of grievances.

YAWNNNNNNNN....

[UCANSEE2]

remember....87% of black Americans can’t name the President of Africa

That's easy. The President of Africa is TARZAN.

Why would they want to name ANY U.S. President? Maybe they think he's an "Uncle Tom" for being half white. Who knows, who cares.

Can’t post right now, but the ‘Kwanzaa Timmy’ sketch from SNL is hysterical......maybe someone can find it and post it. Always makes us laugh!

[VanDeKoik]

A “holiday” with a body count.

[super7man]

On a similar note, how old is Burning Man?

[Responsibility2nd]

And we heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight:
“Happy Kwanzaa to all, except if you’re white!”

[Responsibility2nd]

Happy Kwanzaa indeed.

It’s another one of the left’s Pet Rock phenomena just as ‘gay marriage’ and putting Timmy in the girls’ showers are.

It was a racial thumb in the eye with all its affected cod-Swahili names and fatuous objectives.

The internet, for all its faults, allowed people to discover the shady origins and the unreconstructed communist behind Kwanzaa.

The first black president made a few half hearted swipes at promoting it but he puts more effort into Eid and Ramadan (wink wink) than the fakery of Kwanzaa.

And, as usual, nobody asked black Americans directly what they thought about this separate but equal ‘holiday.’ Turns out they are just as fond of Christmas as we are and resisted the usual leftist attempt to balkanize them.

[relictele]

The same goes for Earth Day.

First Burning Man was in 1986 in San Francisco.

Moved to the desert in 1990.

December 26, the other day in December that will forever live in infamy.

They can hold the annual parade in a driveway, with plenty of room left over.

[Fiji Hill]

Maybe I am wrong but it seems Kwanzaa is dying. I don't notice too many Happy Kwanzaa stuff on TV anymore.

Going the way of Festivus.

[tbpiper]

Hard to believe 1966 was 50 years ago. Yikes!

I know. I'd planned on getting old much later in life.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Big corporations are doing their best to keep this Communist relic of a holiday alive. If you go into the lobbies of most office buildings around me, the Kwanza candles are there right next to the Menorah and Christmas tree.
