Made me think of the song from the Seinfeld episode with Bert Midler:

“Well, you made a long journey from Milan to Minsk, Rochelle, Rochelle...”

Kwanzaa is for atheists, Communists, and, possibly, Unitarians.

I thought it came from the Flintstones, that alien guy. But I get him mixed up with that plant that grows really fast in the south.

I met my first black person when I was about 7 years old. We were on a train to Chicago, and I met a little black boy about my age. The only experience I had previously with black people was through my little Golden Books (Little Black Sambo), and the occasional sighting on TV. Our conversation went something like this:

Me: Gee! Are you from Africa?
Him: Naw, I’s from New Yawk!

We quickly became fast friends for the remainder of the trip, two American boys about the same age.

Seems to me Kwanzaa only separates Americans based on skin color, and does nothing to celebrate a common American heritage.

Christmas isn’t appropriate for most black Americans? How racist can you get?

If Kwanzaa has been around since 1966 and is intended to bring good into the world can the saps celebrating it tell us when we might expect this good to be delivered?

All we see are mass brawls at shopping malls and fast good joints. Or is that the ‘collective work’ part?

Wasn’t corn a New World plant that never originally grew in Africa?

I think “Kwanzaa” is a bullshit holiday, sort of like Groundhog Day.

EVERYTHING about Kwanzaa is fake -- right down to the "journalism":

In LA, CBS Station Pretends There Was a Real Kwanzaa Parade Yesterday

Except, there WAS no "parade" -- every word of the report was FALSE!

Another great article on “Kwanza.” http://archive.frontpagemag.com/Printable.aspx?ArtId=20509
Google “Frontpagemag,” and there are a plethora of great articles on this piece of crap called a “holiday.” This is one of the best articles among others. Just another example of trash being reported as something other than it is. Even the conservative Salem radio network is reporting a bunch of crap regarding this fabricated “holiday.”

What’s funny, is I’m SURE more White people know about Kwanzaa than Blacks do. (due to ‘white guilt’ complex)

I bet I could walk up to 10 random Black people in America, and I’d be LUCKY if even ONE of them knew what in the hell Kwanzaa means.

Kawanza is like so much of the black urban subculture, worthless, much to do about nothing at all
