I enjoyed my most recent visit to San Francisco during the holiday season. One reason in particular was because I was actually able to visit the Museum of the African Diaspora (MOAD). In the past when I have visited they are closed that day, under renovation, etc. But this time I had the pleasure of visiting while they were celebrating the first day of Kwanzaa, which is called Umoja. In the past I have done some research on the celebration and the allure of its rich colors. But this was great as I was able to participate in an actual ceremony and do some in-person research. I actually learned that Kwanzaa is mainly for the children, the coming generation, to have some connection with the ancestral past. And it was also stressed that Kwanzaa is not a religious holiday, but a spiritual holiday; which leads to my whole endorsement of the idea.

 

In the United States many people celebrate Christmas, and all of the materialism, commercialism, emotionalism, and egotism that go along with the celebration of the birth of Christ. There has to be more. Especially since these isms are not good for many people, particularly those who are not financially and materially able. What about spirit? What about community? This is why Kwanzaa makes perfect sense, for those who need it. In a material culture bling and flashy-ness are most important. But some people see flashy material items as a reward for other achievements. In the right community, with the right leaders Personal Development is stressed first, and rewards later.

 

During this celebration I could see and feel the sense of community among those who presented and participated. I also noticed a couple of familiar faces from the WWW, which was like a lightbulb moment for me. And though Kwanzaa is said to be about the children, I think it can also be helpful to the adults who teach and interact with them, as a way to strengthen culture and community.
