Each year, with the onset of Christmas, we are treated to another gauzy, fluff piece about how great Kwanzaa is by yet another PC spewing newspaper columnist. This year, among many others, we find aggrandizement such as the Progressive's "Kwanzaa is more relevant than ever in recession," the Chattanooga Times Free Press with their titled, "Common ground," or the one from the Providence Journal headlined, "Christmas, Kwanzaa and Hanukkah brighten even the darkest season of the year."
Several years ago, the Houston Chronicle got in the act with a piece by Leslie Casimir titled "Learning about Kwanzaa from the holiday's creator." This one, though, was a bit off the usual track of the how-great-is-Kwanzaa theme because this particular piece celebrated the inventor of the faux holiday, Maulana Karenga, himself. So, instead of merely celebrating this manufactured holiday Casimir amazingly made a hero of the rapist, race monger and violent thug who created it!
Casimir waxed all a glow about how wonderful Maulana Karenga is and her column followed a gullible parent who, with kid in tow, went to see the man at a local community center....

Christmas: a celebration 2,000 years old
Kwanzaa: a celebration 35 years old
If it were not for white liberals, “kwanzaa” would not have made it this far. I think more white liberals do kwanzaa, than anyone else ... kind of as an apology for succumbing to celebrating the birthday of Jesus on the 25th
I’m looking fwd to the 2009 White House Kwanza celeb.
They pick their Presidential Candidates that way, too. Better just chuck the Christmas ornaments after this Dec. 25. Kwanzaa will now be the designated Holiday.
The Super Bowl is older than Quanszah (thought I'd give it a bit of muslim flare).
“If it were not for white liberals, “kwanzaa” would not have made it this far.”
Bingo! You hit the nail on the head . . . white, guilt riddled liberals are the only reason this kwanzaa insanity is still around.
I’ve noticed that on our local news stations, the “white” newscasters do the lead-in, and then the “black” newscaster does the rest . . . just like mice.

not to mention ramadan and fit al eid
It’s on Boxing Day, Dec 26
This is a question?
Why is there a question on the title of this post? This is an absolute fact, not a question. The man was a racist and a rapist and torturer. He created this holiday to further seperate blacks from the mainstream american culture, that is the only reason he created it and has stated repeatedly as much.
And the Irony is, it is black women, like the ones he raped and tortured that are the ones that have been embracing and spreading this joke of a holiday in the black community.
Stupid is as stupid does.
This could be the post that saves my life. Thank you so much! (Is it always on Boxing Day, or does it follow the phases of the moon, or some other event like the most recent arrest of a rapper or something like that?)

That’s how the Hussein family will spend its winter solstice holiday!
You can remove the question mark from the title - the issue is not in dispute!
It always runs from the day after Christmas through New Year’s.

PBS Interview with black radical Ron Everett (aka Maulana Karenga) - the guy that invented Kwanzaa 5 years before being sent to prison for torturing two young women.
God, please protect the United States from these seditious radicals and their mindless followers.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!
I have a friend from Nigeria who’s living in my area. He goes to my Church. We were having coffee after Mass when this guy comes up to my friend and starts talking about Kwanza and African Americans having their own holiday and just a bunch of liberal blather and my friend told him. (I’m paraphrasing) “Neither one of us is African-American. I’m African and You’re American..you should thank God. And I celebrate Christmas. Nobody in Africa ever heard of Kwanza.”
