Can i celebrate kwanza even though i white?

What is kwanza? i've heard of it and ppl always say hapy kwanza stuff but like what does it celebrate?

  • Answer:

    Kwanzaa (Kwaanza) is a week-long secular holiday honoring African-American heritage, observed from December 26 to January 1 each year, almost exclusively by African-Americans in the United States of America, though Africans of the diaspora in many countries have begun to practice its observances as well. Kwanzaa consists of seven days of celebration, featuring activities such as candle-lighting and pouring of libations, and culminating in a feast and gift-giving. It was founded by black nationalist Dr. Ron "Maulana" Karenga, and first celebrated from December 26, 1966, to January 1, 1967. Karenga calls Kwanzaa the African American branch of "first fruits" celebrations of classical African cultures.

It's a made up holiday like a WHOLE lot of others that we celebrate- WE need some more culture and refining NOT some stupid holidays(jus my opinion)
