My family celebrates christmass and kwanzaa, so every year the whole family get twice the presents, twice the food, and twice the cleaning up. A large part of the reason why I love my family is because we all know how to have fun with eachother as a whole. I can honestly say that I have never had a family gathering on a holiday that I did not one hundred percent enjoy.
Kwanzaa is a week-long celebration held honoring universal african american heritige and culture, observed from December 26 to January 1 each year. It features activities such as lighting a candle holder with seven candles and combines giving gifts and eating. Over the holiday break, create and publish diary entries on your blog. Share some activities or traditions in which you partook, your state of mind over this time, or any other points of interest. Even if you do very little, engage your reader with reflections on people, events, or the holiday season as a whole. There should be a minimum of three entries on your blog by the time you return to class on January 3rd. I must admit every single year we have had a kwanzaa celebration at the house it gets more corny as the years go buy, but I keeps the youth informed about where we come from as a people and gives them a chance to show off their talents to us. "Imani"....means faith in swahelee.
