But it doesn't celebrate the heritage of most African-Americans in this country who did not come from W.Africa (Swahili), and had no knowledge of corn (used in the celebration). There are just too many things about Kwanzaa that don't make sense if it were to truly reflect "African-American heritage."
I've been wondering for a while now just what this is. IMO about 80% of it is negative, slavery, poverty, second-class citizenship, Really something to celebrate.
