Kwanzaa, celebrated exclusively by white liberals, is a fake holiday invented in 1966 by black radical/FBI stooge Ron Karenga -- aka Dr. Maulana Karenga, founder of United Slaves, the violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers. Liberals have become so mesmerized by multicultural gibberish that they have forgotten the real history of Kwanzaa and Karenga's United Slaves.
In what was ultimately a foolish gambit, during the madness of the '60s, the FBI encouraged the most extreme black nationalist organizations in order to discredit and split the left. The more preposterous the group, the better. (It's the same function MSNBC serves today.)
By that criterion, Karenga's United Slaves was perfect.
Despite modern perceptions that blend all the black activists of the '60s, the Black Panthers did not hate whites. Although some of their most high-profile leaders were drug dealers and murderers, they did not seek armed revolution.
Those were the precepts of Karenga's United Slaves. The United Slaves were proto-fascists, walking around in dashikis, gunning down Black Panthers and adopting invented "African" names. (I will not be shooting any Black Panthers this week because I am Kwanzaa-reform, and we are not that observant.)
It's as if David Duke invented a holiday called "Anglika," which he based on the philosophy of "Mein Kampf" -- and clueless public schoolteachers began celebrating the made-up, racist holiday.
In the category of the-gentleman-doth-protest-too-much, back in the '70s, Karenga was quick to criticize Nigerian newspapers that claimed that certain American black radicals were CIA operatives.
Now we know the truth: The FBI fueled the bloody rivalry between the Panthers and United Slaves. In the annals of the American '60s, Karenga was the Father Gapon, stooge of the czarist police. Whether Karenga was a willing FBI dupe, or just a dupe, remains unclear.
But the left has forgotten the FBI's tacit encouragement of this murderous black nationalist cult founded by the father of Kwanzaa.
In one barbarous outburst, Karenga's United Slaves shot two Black Panthers to death on the UCLA campus: Al "Bunchy" Carter and John Huggins. Karenga himself served time -- a useful stepping-stone for his current position as the chair of the Africana Studies Department at California State University at Long Beach.
(Speaking of which, the cheap labor lobby certainly was right about how the GOP could easily win over "socially conservative" minorities. Look at how California has swung decisively to the right since whites became a minority there. Good luck winning California now, Democrats!)
Back to the esteemed Cal State professor: Karenga's invented holiday is a nutty blend of schmaltzy '60s rhetoric, black racism and Marxism. The seven principles of Kwanzaa are the very same seven principles of the Symbionese Liberation Army, another invention of The Worst Generation.
In 1974, Patty Hearst, kidnap victim-cum-SLA revolutionary, famously posed next to the banner of her alleged captors, a seven-headed cobra. Each snakehead stood for one of the SLA's revolutionary principles: Umoja, Kujichagulia, Ujima, Ujamaa, Nia, Kuumba and Imani. These are the exact same seven "principles" of Kwanzaa, or "Kawaida," as Karenga calls them. (And here's something interesting: Kawaida, Kwanzaa and Kuumba are also the only three Kardashian sisters not to have their own shows on the E! network.)
Kwanzaa praises collectivism in every possible area of life. It takes a village to raise a police snitch.
When Karenga was asked to distinguish Kawaida, the philosophy underlying Kwanzaa, from "classical Marxism," he essentially said that, under Kawaida, we also hate whites.
While taking the "best of early Chinese and Cuban socialism" (is that the mass murder, the imprisonment of homosexuals or the forced labor?), Karenga said Kawaida practitioners believe one's racial identity "determines life conditions, life chances and self-understanding."
There's an inclusive philosophy for you!
Sing to "Jingle Bells":
Kwanzaa bells, dashikis sell
Whitey has to pay;
Burning, shooting, oh what fun
On this made-up holiday!
Kwanzaa emerged not from Africa, but from the FBI's COINTELPRO. It is a holiday celebrated exclusively by idiot white liberals. Black people celebrate Christmas.
Merry Christmas, fellow Christians!
Interesting.
IIRC “kwanza” was invented by some scumbag habitual felon.
Happy Boxing Day
Kwanzaa huh?
Now that’s some kind of B.S.
When they look at you weird, tell them it's Swahili. It's the proper response to 'Happy Kwanzaa'.
(Don't tell them it means 'cow dung'...)
Rochester NY makes a big deal of this. Of course, free food helps to make it a success. It’ll go away....just like....Festivus. LOL
I love racial black nationalism.
Si I be quanza’ed left, right and center.
There is not one thing wrong with the fact that I am involved in completely fictional cultural appropriation.
And I love to dance.
SO!
Happy Kwanza!
Hanuka , take a back sheet!
(Kwanza even has a minora!)

Had no idea about Patty Hearst, the 7-headed snake/dragon/whatever it was and Kwanzaa principles.
The things I’m learning this morning!
‘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!”

I just listened to a Steven Crowder podcast where he discussed his “Change My Mind” thing where he went to a “Kwanzaa Fest” and set up a table with a sign saying something like “Kwanzaa is a fake holiday-change my mind” and it was pretty funny...he had one of his crew who is black man the table, and had interactions with people. Almost nobody knew the “founder” of Kwanzaa and the crimes he was convicted of.
Most were good natured about it, they just accepted that Kwanzaa was real and admitted they had no idea.
Does anyone have black friends who celebrate Kwanzaa. I don’t and that’s out of 7 families
A friend of mine in Sacramento was in us at UCLA and even slept with Mere fact. Not unusual. He attracted women even though he was abusive
He intended to draw millions away from Christmas to destroy the white mans holiday. She thought him high iq but a megliomaniac
Actually they did, and they worked with Castro's network and white leftist groups towards this end, but various factions of Marxists (CP, SWP, Maoists, sub-groups of Maoists. . .) often disagreed on ideology and tactics, leading to splits and rivalries such as those with Karenga. The FBI agent supervising the COINTELPROs tasked with the civil rights movement and the BPP, William C. Sullivan--who was by then a CIA asset within the FBI--encouraged these rivalries.
Just the obamys.
Woo hoo, lets get out the electric cords and water hoses and dance around like Moo.
This event would totally disappear if we didn’t publicize it each year.
I was doing just fine not hearing about it.
Thanks Town Hall.

Or you could say "mokele mbembe." It's not rude, but a total non-sequitur. It does, however, refer to a mythical creature, and they are referring to a mythical holiday.
Oh, sorta like ‘stinko de piehole’? A non holiday foisted on fools by someone making a buck. Still looking for investors to open a giant store built like a quonset hut and call it the Kwanzaa Hut. You know for all your holiday needs.
(Would you believe that the food stylist that actually created that thing for SLop/FN, actually admitted it a few years ago?)
