It always runs from the day after Christmas through New Year’s.

Oh, that’s right...

1. I always remember when it starts because Dec 26 is the Britsh Boxing Day holiday, not a sport but to do with an old Post Office tradition of sorts

2. The several days bit is an attempt to undermined Chanukah with its 8 days of celebration. Some anti-Semite leanings there

3. Like Chanukah, the kids get presents every day etc

4. Like Christmas the colors are red and green with black instead of white these 3 colors are in the stripes of the flag of an African country....

and so on...

If you didnt know better you would be convinced that k has been around for centuries instead of just a couple of decades...

k is American made and not an old tradition from a “home” country

You’re absolutely right, and it’s sad that many decent American black people think it’s part of their history, like St. Patrick’s Day for Irish, and participate in something of which the origin is pure evil.
