Something new I stumbled upon today, Kwanzaa! One subtle and yet significant event in December caalled Kwanzaa is the annual celebration of African-American culture from December 26 to January 1, culminating in a communal feast called Karamu, usually on the sixth day. It's all about looking inwards and contemplating on the theme of each day :) Each of the seven days of Kwanzaa is dedicated to one of the principles, as follows: 1. Umoja (Unity): To strive for and to maintain unity in the family, community, nation, and race. 2. Kujichagulia (Self-determination): To define and name ourselves, as well as to create and speak for ourselves. 3. 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. 4. Ujamaa (Cooperative economics): To build and maintain our own stores, shops, and other businesses and to profit from them together. 5. Nia (Purpose): To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our community in order to restore our people to their traditional greatness. 6. 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. 7. Imani (Faith): To believe with all our hearts in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders, and the righteousness and victory of our struggle. Such a rich culture and so much to learn from the principles, isn't it? Wah Kwanzaa! #newlearnings
