Kwanzaa Knowledge Breeds Savings!
December 26, 2000 | 12:50 amJust a little notice: Make sure the person you’re about to send a Happy Kwanzaa card to actually celebrates Kwanzaa. Just because someone is black, doesn’t mean they celebrate the holiday. In fact, many African Americans don’t (and chuckle when they receive Kwanzaa cards). Save yourself a couple bucks and ask first. ^^
I’ll have to give the Kwanzaa publicity machine a lot of credit. To go from non-existence to being mentioned in the same holiday breath with Christmas and Hanukkah in less than forty years is quite an accomplishment. More than a hundred years of built up national guilt certainly didn’t hurt the cause either. Congrats folks… and don’t forget to light your Umoja candle tonight. ^^
