About Kwanzaa
Kwanzaa is a weeklong celebration from December 26th – January 1st dedicated to introducing and reinforcing the seven fundamental values of African culture that contribute to building and supporting family, community, and culture. While African Americans created Kwanzaa in the United States, it is recognized across the Africans Diaspora. These values are called the Nguzo Saba, the Seven Principles in Swahili. The Seven Principles are Umoja (Unity), Kujichagulia (Self-Determination), Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility), Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics), Nia (Purpose), Kuumba (Creativity), and Imani (Faith).
