Kwanzaa, a holiday created in 1966 by Maulana Karenga, black nationalist and current chair of Africana studies at California State University, Long BeachThat's odd.
The article fails to mention that Karenga served time in prison for brutally torturing women.
Hmmm...

The inlaws of Akeem Joffer whose queen happens to be their daughter kiss up to Zamunda customs. They are believed to celebrate Kwanzaa and decorate for it at McDowell’s hamburger restaurants across the country.

Ronald McKinley Everett AKA
Maulana Karenga
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maulana_Karenga
Conviction for assault
In 1971, Karenga “was sentenced to one to ten years in prison on counts of felonious assault and false imprisonment”.[11] One of the victims gave testimony of how Karenga and other men tortured her and another woman. The woman claimed to have been stripped and beaten with an electrical cord. Karenga’s former wife, Brenda Lorraine Karenga, testified that he sat on the other womans stomach while another man forced water into her mouth through a hose.
A May 14, 1971, article in the Los Angeles Times described the testimony of one of the women:
“Deborah Jones, who once was given the Swahili title of an African queen, said she and Gail Davis were whipped with an electrical cord and beaten with a karate baton after being ordered to remove their clothes. She testified that a hot soldering iron was placed in Miss Davis’ mouth and placed against Miss Davis’ face and that one of her own big toes was tightened in a vise. Karenga, head of US, also put detergent and running hoses in their mouths, she said. They also were hit on the heads with toasters.”
Karenga explained his actions by saying that one of the women he had tortured had attempted to assassinate him, but he had no evidence.[11][12][13] He was imprisoned at the California Men’s Colony, where he studied and wrote on feminism, Pan-Africanism and other subjects. The Us organization fell into disarray during his absence and was disbanded in 1974. After he petitioned several black state officials to support his parole on fair sentencing grounds, it was granted in 1975.

only 35 percent of respondents currently observe Kwanzaa, an African-American holiday
I wouldn't say that. I've seen scores of Kwanzaa celebrating shoppers at malls across the nation, especially when the Michael Jordan shoes came out...........

Kwanzaa is passe? I guess I'll just have to use my soldering iron, vise and extension cord for home repairs. Maybe I can use my Kwanzaa karate baton for for staking up tomato plants next summer (which I will water with my Kwanzaa hose).

Playcate, give them what they want. If Mohammed can make up a religion from a pagan moon god so can the blacks make up a holiday of harvest to offset the honkie Christmas.

Reader poll result suggests the holiday may be past its primeIt's a shame.
Wishing your friends and relatives a "Happy Kwanzaa" with a straight face followed by a quick chuckle always draws a few laughs.
