Celebrating Kwanzaa

"Kwanzaa is based on seven principles that aid those celebrating in looking at their past and heritage. They think about who they are now and use this knowledge to plan for a bright future. The holiday's founder, Maulana Karenga, believes that the message of Kwanzaa is universal: 'Any message that is good for a particular people speaks not just to that people. It speaks to the world'"--Provided by publisher.
