The new Christmas will be Kwanza. So start brushing up on your favorite Kwanza song. I wonder, will it become a national holiday? Oh boy, another day off.

Here are some interesting facts about Kwanzaa, starting with the fact that it is a week long holiday (December 26th is its start date.)

For those who are interested:Kwanzaa

Kwanzaa celebrates what its founder called "The Seven Principles of Kwanzaa", or Nguzo Saba (originally Nguzu Saba - "The Seven Principles of Blackness"), which Karenga said "is a communitarian African philosophy" consisting of what Karenga called "the best of African thought and practice in constant exchange with the world." These seven principles comprise Kawaida, a Swahili term for tradition and reason. Each of the seven days of Kwanzaa is dedicated to one of the following principles, as follows:

Umoja (Unity) To strive for and to maintain unity in the family, community, nation and race.
Kujichagulia (Self-Determination) To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves and speak for ourselves.
Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility) To build and maintain our community together and make our brothers' and sisters' problems our problems and to solve them together.
Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics) To build and maintain our own stores, shops and other businesses and to profit from them together.
Nia (Purpose) To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our community in order to restore our people to their traditional greatness.
Kuumba (Creativity) To do always as much as we can, in the way we can, in order to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.
Imani (Faith) To believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.

Lofty principles...now if they would only practice them. It seems they have a long way to go in several of the seven principles. The local Crips and Bloods could use some guidance.

Ba humbug

yrs ago i bought a smooth jazz Christmas cd at best buy for $2.99. thinking it may have a track or 2 that would be good. the entire cd is awesome!
