So when is the Festivus guy coming around?
“So when is the Festivus guy coming around?”
Right after he gets his pole polished.
Ok let me ask- Do any black freepers here feel embarrassed over the likes of these morons?
How about the “Reverend” Al Sharpton?
It would really leave me PO’d if some clown like that was called up by all the liberal news organizations every time they wanted to know what all the white people think.
Maulana Karenga...”It’s all bullsh&%! Thanks for coming”!
Genghis Khan is going to be there telling stories? 'Temujin' is now an African name?
If Temujin the Storyteller starts in with reciting to the children 'The Three Greatest Things In Life', I have to say that I don't like the direction this Kwanzaa thing is going.
Reflect on Kwanzaa’s meaning?
Is there a Guinness record for shortest reflection?
Why should anyone want to celebrate “collective economics”? It would seem much wiser to celebrate the abandonment of collective economics (which is, in significant measure, what allowed the Plymouth Colony to start thriving after a very dismal start).
I’ve heard very little about Kwanzaa in the MSM this year.
I heard that only about 5% of black Americans observe Kwanzaa.
I like the picture we’ve seen recently here, where a teacher is lighting the candles for Kwanzaa, and the caption reads that only white elementary school teachers observe Kwanzaa. Given the liberal bent of teachers, wanting to be PC and remind us that there are many holidays this time of year, I would believe it’s true.
“Hill House activities will begin with arts and crafts for children”
Hide the hot glue guns...
I thought I heard that the 7 principles of Kwanzaa are based on Marxism/socialism. So that right there, if true, makes one wonder if Karenga was trying to make a political statement when he invented his holiday.
20 to 30 million people worldwide?
More like 2 to 3 thousand in the US, tops. Africans have never heard of it.
Why does anybody give Ron Everett the slightest bit of attention?
On the second day of Kwanzaa Karenga gave to me
Two Jaily birds,
And a Marxist in a red tree.
On the third day of Kwanzaa Karenga gave to me
Three Dixie Chicks.
Two Jaily birds,
And a Marxist in a red tree.
On the fourth day of Kwanzaa Karenga gave to me
Four Lenin busts.
Three Dixie Chicks,
Two Jaily birds,
And a Marxist in a red tree.
On the fifth day of Kwanzaa Karenga gave to me
Five fel-on-ies.
Four Lenin busts,
Three Dixie Chicks,
Two Jaily birds,
And a Marxist in a red tree.
On the sixth day of Kwanzaa Karenga gave to me
Six Castro jumpsuits.
Five fel-on-ies,
Four Lenin busts,
Three Dixie Chicks,
Two Jaily birds,
And a Marxist in a red tree.
On the seventh day of Kwanzaa Karenga gave to me
Seven Mao pajamas,
Six Castro jumpsuits,
Five fel-on-ies,
Four Lenin busts
Three Dixie Chicks,
Two Jaily birds,
And a Marxist in a red tree.
This is also good for a laugh:
By Kathy Shaidle
‘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!”
"Crush your enemies, see them driven before you,
and hear the lamentation of their women!"
