Thank you so much for this very informative article about Kwanzaa! I will definitely share this with as many people I know as it's one of the best explanations I've read for each principle. My children and I began celebrating Kwanzaa when they were younger and it is such a beautiful way to connect with each other and to strengthen our spirits for the new year ahead. It comes without any of the superficial materialism associated with other traditional holidays which is so refreshing :-) Sending love and blessings to you and your family!!
