We hope you had a joyous Christmas (if you celebrate the holiday) and spent time with family and friends. Now Kwanzaa has begun and will be a fun week of lights and African traditions until January 1. As an African American and Pan-African holiday celebrated by millions throughout the world African community, Kwanzaa brings a cultural message which speaks to the best of what it means to be African and human in the fullest sense. Given the profound significance Kwanzaa has for African Americans and indeed, the world African community, we have a web page devoted to the celebration of Kwanzaa.
