"TRENT LOTT, call your office: Apparently some parts of American history can
be sanitized and forgotten. Earlier this week, President George Bush issued
a formal White House proclamation celebrating Kwanzaa.

Sounding like a "Saturday Night Live" send-up, Bush praised the "seven
principles" of Kwanzaa, "known as Nguzo Saba," and discussed the "early
harvest gatherings called 'matunda ya kwanza,' or first fruits." He included
the usual claptrap about how Kwanzaa celebrates "traditional African values"
and "uniting people of diverse backgrounds and beliefs."

It is a fact that Kwanzaa was invented in 1966 by a black radical FBI
stooge,
Ron Karenga, aka Dr. Maulana Karenga.
Karenga was a founder of United Slaves,
a violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers and a dupe of the FBI.




In what was probably ultimately a foolish gamble, during the madness of the
'60s the FBI encouraged the most extreme black nationalist organizations in
order to discredit and split the left. The more preposterous the
organization, the better.
Karenga's United Slaves was perfect. In the annals of the American '60s,
Karenga was the Father Gapon, stooge of the czarist police.

Despite modern perceptions that blend all the black activists of the '60s,
the Black Panthers did not hate whites. They did not seek armed revolution.
Those were the precepts of Karenga's United Slaves.
United Slaves were proto-fascists, walking around in dashikis,
blowing away Black Panthers and adopting invented "African" names.
(That was a big help to the black community:
How many boys named "Jamal" currently sit on death row?)

Whether Karenga was a willing dupe, or just a dupe, remains unclear.
Curiously, in a 1995 interview with Ethnic NewsWatch,
Karenga matter-of-factly explained that the forces out to get O.J. Simpson
for the "framed" murder of two whites included: "the FBI, the CIA, the State
Department, Interpol, the Chicago Police Department" and so on. (He further
noted that "the evidence was not strong enough to prohibit or eliminate
unreasonable doubt" -- an interesting standard of proof.) Karenga should
know about FBI infiltration.

In the category of the-gentleman-doth-protest-too-much, back in the '70s,
Karenga was quick to criticize rumors that black radicals were
government-supported. When Nigerian newspapers claimed that some American
black radicals were CIA operatives, Karenga leapt in to denounce the idea
publicly, saying,
"Africans must stop generalizing about the loyalties and motives of
Afro-Americans, including the widespread suspicion of black Americans being
CIA agents."

By now, there is no question that the FBI fueled the bloody rivalry
between the Panthers and United Slaves.
In one barbarous outburst, Karenga's United Slaves shot Black Panther
Al "Bunchy" Carter on the UCLA campus.
Karenga himself served time, a useful stepping-stone for his current
position as a black studies professor at California State University at Long
Beach.

Kwanzaa itself is a lunatic blend of schmaltzy '60s rhetoric,
black racism and Marxism.
Indeed, the seven "principles" of Kwanzaa praise collectivism in every
possible arena of life -- economics, work, personality, even litter removal.
("Kuumba: Everyone should strive to improve the community and
make it more beautiful.")
It takes a village to raise a police snitch.

When Karenga was asked to distinguish Kawaida,
the philosophy underlying Kwanzaa,
from "classical Marxism,"
he essentially explained that under Kawaida,
we also hate whites.

While taking the "best of" -- I'm not making this up --
"early Chinese and Cuban socialism,"
Kawaida practitioners believe one's racial identity
"determines life conditions, life chances and self-understanding."
There's an inclusive philosophy for you.

Coincidentally, the seven principles of Kwanzaa are the very
same seven principles of the Symbionese Liberation Army,
another charming invention of the Least-Great Generation.
In 1974, Patricia Hearst, kidnap victim-cum-SLA revolutionary,
posed next to the banner of her alleged captors,
a seven-headed cobra.
Each snake head stood for one of the SLA's revolutionary principles:
Umojo, Kujichagulia, Ujima, Ujamaa, Nia, Kuumba and Imani --
precisely the seven "principles" of Kwanzaa.

With his Kwanzaa greetings,
President Bush is saluting the intellectual sibling of the Symbionese
Liberation Army, killer of housewives and police.
He is saluting the founder of United Slaves,
who were such lunatics that they shot Panthers for not being sufficiently
insane --
all with the FBI as their covert ally.

It's as if David Duke invented a holiday called "Anglica,"
and the president of the United States issued a
presidential proclamation honoring the synthetic holiday.
People might well stand up and take notice if that happened.

Kwanzaa was the result of a '60s psychosis grafted onto black community.
Liberals have become so mesmerized by multicultural nonsense that they have
forgotten the real history of Kwanzaa and United Slaves -- the violence,
the Marxism, the insanity.
Most absurdly, for leftists anyway,
is that they have forgotten the FBI's tacit encouragement
of this murderous black nationalist cult founded by the father of Kwanzaa.

Now the "holiday" concocted by an FBI dupe is honored in a presidential
proclamation calling it a "holiday that promotes mutual understanding."

A movement that started approximately 2,000 years before Kwanzaa leaps well beyond merely "promot(ing) mutual understanding" to say we are all equal before God. It is so inclusive, people get mad at it.
That movement is celebrated in December.
But the Christian leaders at the forefront of the
abolitionist and civil rights movements
have been washed down the memory hole."

{The language of Kwanzaa is almost all East African
(Indian Ocean side). West Africa was origin of almost
all the slaves brought to the "Americas". }
 
Sounds almost as crazy as a giant rabbit leaving eggs and candy for children. :neener:

Check out Kwanzaa in a century or so. If it survives that long. It'll probably be a very entrenched "traditional" holiday.

Dik-Dik

From http://www.honoluluzoo.org/dik_dik.htm

Gunther's Dik-Diks are graceful dwarf antelopes about the size of a fox terrier. At maturity they weigh up to 12 pounds and are 14 inches tall at the shoulder. These tiny animals (35cm shoulder-height) have almost no tail and a small tuft of hair on the head. Kirk's Dik-dik are reddish-brown with paler flanks and a white belly.

They mark their territory with dung (on the ground) and deposit a tarry secretion on to twigs from a pre-orbital gland (near their large eyes). Their nose, forehead and upper parts have a reddish tinge, and their under parts are light to white. The males have short pointed horns, and are slightly smaller than the hornless females.

Tiny tails and tufts of hair on the tops of their heads are characteristic of Dik-diks.

Both sexes have noticeably elongated noses that enhance their ability to withstand the heat of the bush. (Evaporation from the mucous membranes exposes the blood vessels to cooler air.)
 
This I witnessed.

Just about thanksgiving time in 1992, Larry King Nearly Alive had Martha Stewart on as a guest. She was jabbering about the upcoming Christmas Holidays and how to fold your napkins and what color toilet paper was appropriate. When it came call-in time, a black woman called in with a question about Kwanza. Martha had never heard of it and said so. We've come a long ways since and old Martha will be getting plenty of time to study Kwz, methinks.

About three days after the show, I heard two black young guys chatting outside my orifice door where I taught at a tech. college. One asked the other what he was going to do for Kwanza. The other one said, "What's Kwanza?" The first one said, "Some dude in Brooklyn dreamed it up to run against Whitie's Christmas."

Turns out the "dude" was from LA, I guess.

I do like the David Duke analogy above. It seems to illustrate just how sane this hate-mongering "holiday" is.

Other than the hate part it sounds like another holiday invented inAmerica about 100 years ago. I think we call it X-Mas now. It's a conglomeration of many Euro taditions and has very little to do with the birth of Christ, Cause he was born in Spring not the dead of Winter.
America has a long traditin of inventing holidays that's what makes us fun
 
I honestly don't care about Kwanza one way or the other, but I do find the consternation about its existence to be rather amusing (and often enlightening).

So if we make up our own holiday will the president give a speech on national TV?? How about 2nd Amendment Day a celebration of all things gun related where everyone gets the day off to go to the range! Or we could make it a broader holiday Constitution Day so we could suck in all the other pro-constitution types.
 
Great idea

Evil_ed. I like that "Constitution day."

A few of us tried to get 15 December celebrated as "Bill Of Rights Day." I guess it is the anniversary of the BoR's final ratification vote. Too close to Christmas and all the other celebrating. 'Course so is Kwanza.

I have a great idea for a motto to go along with Constitution day. "It's time to refresh the tree of liberty."

I've used that and gotten big hoorahs from gun grabbers and other anti-liberty fools who are too illiterate to have ever read the original text about refreshing the tree of liberty with the blood of tyrants and patriots.

hehhehheh.

I really don't see how a made up religion is all THAT different than some of the things that have been incorporated into "traditional" religions. I mean there was a point when each religion was 'made up'.
 
Exactly, c_yeager. So let's all belittle the more recent ones. Why? Because it makes us feel superior.
 
Kwanzaa -- it's got merits!

Just like some of our longer-standing holidays, Kwanzaa has some skeletons in its closet, sure -- but if you ever look into the principles of Kwanzaa and what the holiday espouses, it's actually a very positive, community-centered holiday that can be celebrated by people of all faiths.

The seven principles of Kwanzaa are:

Umoja (Unity): To strive for and maintain unity in the family, community, nation and race.

Kujichagulia (Self-Determination): To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves and speak for ourselves.

Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility): To build and maintain our community together and make our brother's and sister's problems our problems and to solve them together.

Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics): To build and maintain our own stores, shops and other businesses and to profit from them together.

Nia (Purpose): To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our community in order to restore our people to their traditional greatness.

Kuumba (Creativity): To do always as much as we can, in the way we can, in order to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.

Imani (Faith): To believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.

If white seperatists made up a holiday, they would probably have the same 7 tenents except that the name of each would probably be in German or Norwegian. LOL.
 
I don't think the issue here is the legitimacy of Kwanza as a holiday. Christmas is just as hollow these days as Kwanza.

The problem with this, should be the fact that President Bush came out in support of a holiday and it's principles that are anathema to everything America was founded upon. Oh sure, they sound good and well on paper, but like wa said in an earlier post, Kwanza was founded on principles of affirmative action and socialism.

Bush has proved yet again that he is willing to be as politically correct as is needed to appease a specific voting group.
