Do you view Kwanzaa as a real holiday, or a joke?

Well, it's not even an African holiday. It was made by Ron Karenga (a Black militant and convicted felon) in the 60's. Fewer than 2% celebrate it.
Also, Kwanzaa is not compatible with all African cultures, especially with North Africa, which practices Islam. Actually, it attempts to reject the other religious holidays. Kwanzaa teaches the seven principles of blackness (I'm not even kidding). It is also evident of Karenga's marxist views. |

Feeling this guy to I mean I'm black but I feel no need to celebrate this hoilday. When the people in africa give this hoilday some needed respeact i will to. i mean the seven days are important in the sense of being a humam in genral not just black. |
