Day 5 - Nia (Purpose): As we observe #Kwanzaa, let's reflect on our individual and collective purposes. Nia challenges us to define and pursue goals that benefit our community. What's your PURPOSE? Share your thoughts! #Nia #PowerOfPurpose

KUJICHAGULIA, the second Kwanzaa principle, highlights self-determination. It is to define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves, and speak for ourselves. #happykwanzaa #kujichagulia #blackconnect #kwanzaa
