Celebrating Kwanzaa

By Seth Lynch

Book Overview

Kwanzaa is a unique holiday. It's not only less than 60 years old, but also isn't affiliated with any faith. Kwanzaa was created in the 1960s by a Black American for Black Americans to reconnect with their heritage and culture. Based on African harvest festivals, Kwanzaa is a week-long time of celebration and contemplation. This volume introduces readers to the holiday's origins, details what a celebration is like day by day, and explains symbols of Kwanzaa, as well as discusses how the holiday's popularity has changed over time. A creative craft helps make this learning experience even more enjoyable.
