How can xmas and easter be consider holidays and not kwanzza because all holidays are man made?

with the exception of certain jewish holidays as written in the old testament

Answer:
Kwanza is a holiday; it's just not a United States National Holiday. Note: Strictly speaking, the United States has no national holidays since each state designates holidays through the legislative process or by executive order. The United States Congress can legally designate holidays for federal employees and for the District of Columbia. The holidays normally listed on a calendar represent those federal holidays which are also observed by the majority of states.

Kwanzaa is a holiday for African Americans, celebrating their roots. It would be a nice idea but I don't think very many other people would want to join in the celebration of their heritage, even though they are welcome.

Christmas and Easter celebrate the two hugest events that occur in the New Testament, namely the birth of Jesus (giving rise to the whole New Testatment, after Mary is immaculately impregnated, of course) and the Resurrection of Jesus. The belief that Jesus is the Son of God is the crux of the various Christian religions. What the heck is kwanzza anyway -- I know it's an African-American celebration, but a celebration of what?

Kwanzza is indeed a holiday. There's a children's book written specifically on the days one celebrates it.

Most holidays have religious or celebratory roots. Kwanzza was created by some business men in Oakland as a way to bolster a market in a primarily African-American neighborhood.
