"Kwanzaa is a unique celebration of African American focus on the traditional African values of family, community responsibility, commerce and self-improvement is. Kwanzaa neither political nor religious, and despite some mistakes, not a substitute for Christmas. It is simply a time of reaffirming African-Americans, their ancestors and their culture. Kwanzaa means "first fruits of the harvest" in Swahili. Since its founding in 1966, Dr. Maulana Karenga, chairman of the CSULB Department of Black Studies, has Kwanzaa come by more than 15 million people will be seen worldwide. Kwanzaa is celebrated from December 26 to January 1.

The seven days of Kwanzaa, Swahili and purpose of this event is remembered where she came from African-Americans. It was never intended to replace or take "far" from Christmas. As Celebrator reality both Kwanzaa and Christmas is not the intention of shooting a black militaristic mood. The term "Black Power" came from Ron Karenga not Stokely Carmichael
