Dr. Maulana Karenga, professor and chairman of Black Studies at California State University, Long Beach, created Kwanzaa in 1966. After the Watts riots in Los Angeles, Dr. Karenga searched for ways to bring African-Americans together as a community.
Epic fail.

I read that it wasn’t so much to “bring the aa community together”, as it was to try and stop them from burning everything down. “Bringing them together” is a little tame.
