Kwanzaa, a cultural holiday rooted in African traditions, was created in 1966 by Dr. Maulana Karenga, a professor and cultural activist. The celebration, which lasts for seven days, starts on December 26th and concludes on January 1st, providing an opportunity for people of African descent to come together and reflect on their heritage. Kwanzaa is not a religious holiday but rather a cultural and social observance focused on the principles of unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith. The seven principles, known as the Nguzo Saba, serve as the foundation for Kwanzaa, guiding individuals and communities toward a harmonious and meaningful existence. Each day of Kwanzaa is dedicated to one of these principles, fostering a holistic approach to personal and collective growth. 1. Umoja (Unity):The first day of Kwanzaa emphasizes the importance of unity within families, communities, and the African diaspora as a whole. It encourages individuals to recognize and appreciate the strength that comes from standing together in solidarity. 2. Kujichagulia (Self-Determination):On the second day, Kwanzaa celebrates the principle of self-determination. This involves defining, creating, and speaking for oneself, encouraging individuals to take control of their destinies and shape their lives according to their own values. 3. Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility):The third day underscores the significance of collective effort and responsibility. It urges individuals to work collaboratively to solve problems and build a better future for their communities. 4. Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics):Cooperative economics is the focus of the fourth day. Kwanzaa encourages the building and supporting of businesses that benefit the community, emphasizing economic cooperation over competition. 5. Nia (Purpose):Nia, the principle of purpose, is celebrated on the fifth day. It encourages individuals to set personal and collective goals that contribute to the well-being and advancement of the community. 6. Kuumba (Creativity):The sixth day of Kwanzaa highlights creativity as a means of expressing and enhancing the cultural identity of the community. It emphasizes the importance of contributing to the ongoing cultural legacy through artistic and intellectual pursuits. 7. Imani (Faith):The final day of Kwanzaa is dedicated to the principle of faith. This is not limited to religious faith but encompasses a belief in the goodness of the community and the potential for positive change. Each day of Kwanzaa involves lighting a candle on the Kinara, a seven-branched candleholder symbolizing the principles of the holiday. Additionally, other symbolic items, such as the Mishumaa Saba (seven candles), the Kikombe cha Umoja (unity cup), and the Mkeka (mat), are used to reinforce the cultural significance of the celebration. In conclusion, Kwanzaa is a vibrant and meaningful cultural celebration that provides an opportunity for people of African descent to come together, reflect on their heritage, and embrace principles that foster unity, self-determination, collective responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith. Through the observance of Kwanzaa, individuals and communities are encouraged to not only celebrate their rich cultural heritage but also to actively contribute to the betterment of their communities and the world at large.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Seven African brothers live in a small village in Ghana. They make family life miserable with their constant fighting. When their father dies, he leaves an unusual will: by sundown, the brothers must make gold out of seven spools of thread. If they fail, they will be turned out as beggars. Using the Nguzo Saba, or “seven principles” of Kwanzaa, the author has created an unforgettable story that shows how family members can pull together, for their own good and the good of the entire community. Magnificent and inspiring linoleum block prints by Daniel Minter bring joy to this Kwanzaa celebration. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/avant-garde-books/support

Dr. Maulana Karenga, professor and chairman of Black Studies at California State University, Long Beach, created Kwanzaa in 1966. After the Watts riots in Los Angeles, Dr. Karenga searched for ways to bring African Americans together as a community. He founded US, a cultural organization, and started to research African “first fruit” (harvest) celebrations. Karenga combined aspects of several different harvest celebrations, such as those of the Ashanti and those of the Zulu, to form the basis of the week-long holiday. Kwanzaa 2021 will take place Sunday, December 26, 2021 through Saturday, January 1, 2022. Kwanzaa History The name Kwanzaa is derived from the phrase “matunda ya kwanza” which means “first fruits” in Swahili. Each family celebrates Kwanzaa in its own way, but celebrations often include songs and dances, African drums, storytelling, poetry reading, and a large traditional meal. On each of the seven nights, the family gathers and a child lights one of the candles on the Kinara (candleholder), then one of the seven principles is discussed. The principles, called the Nguzo Saba (seven principles in Swahili) are values of African culture which contribute to building and reinforcing community among African-Americans. Kwanzaa also has seven basic symbols which represent values and concepts reflective of African culture. An African feast, called a Karamu, is held on December 31. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/tipsandtricksforlife/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/tipsandtricksforlife/support

Here are the latest Kwanzaa events happening from Dec. 26 to Jan. 1 throughout California where different groups will celebrate the seven principles of Kwanzaa for seven days. Kwanzaa, meaning "first fruits" is a reflective celebration of African-based principles that originated in the United States in 1966 by founder Dr. Maulana Karenga; it is a celebration of community, family and culture, established as a means to help African Americans reconnect with their roots and heritage. For seven days the Nguzo Saba, Kwanzaa's seven principles are celebrated – Umoja (unity), Kujichagulia (self-determination), Ujima (collective work and responsibility), Ujamaa (cooperative economics), Nia (purpose), Kuumba (creativity) and Imani (faith).
Great Kuumba:We are still kicking back here on the Journey. Getting ready to finish the year strong. We have over the last few weeks broke down the days their principle and the names that go with them, peered into the Nguzo Saba, Shared the secret of the Player's Pyramid, looked into the principles of Maat, dove into the Hermetic Principles, and then shared our views on the 10 Virtues of Maat. Now I am getting my mind ready to share some of the other ideas of Gye-Nyame by sharing pieces of our books. We invite you in to share with us and go deeper. This process is just the prelude to our 21 week Self Mastery Training. So get it while it is fresh and free.
The power of movement and meditation is always a valuable topic to anyone who finds trouble slowing down and taking time for themselves. This show will be focused on the specific tasks that we as individuals strive to achieve as we move up the Nguzo Saba principles.
The Nguzo Saba, or the Seven Principles of Nationhood, are the guiding principles of Kwanzaa. In Swahili, Nguzo Saba translates as "the seven principles." These seven essential principles form the philosophical foundation of the Gye-Nyame Tribe. Join us for this evening Toast as we discuss the principle of Imani. Imani literally means faith. This principle focuses on the force that is unseen, but makes everything visible.
The Principles of Nguzo Saba are an opportunity to practice mindfulness in a way that is rooted in seeing ourselves in community and responsible for each other.
