These are unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith.

These are part of the african tradition??

Unity? Africa has the most wars and oppression of any other part of the world. It still has slavery!

self-determination? what a joke. Africa is full of dictatorships and only a few even bother to have rigged elections any more.

collective work??... why is being a slave worker on a collective farm a virtue?

responsibility? ever heard of AIDS?? They have in Africa, its an epidemic... if they had some responsibility it wouldn't be.

Faith? Faith in what exactly??

Seven Pillars of Africa... we only wish they didn't laugh in Africa when someone brings up Kwanzaa...

The seven-day observance, beginning Dec. 26 and ending Jan. 1, serves as a special time to recognize and reaffirm the Nguzo Saba, or Seven Principles, of African culture. These are unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith."

Bout time they add an eighth day, to celebrate AIDS. Or maybe abstinence.
