My thoughts: Kwanzaa's underlying purpose is to provide a secular diversion to and subsequent downplay of the Christmas celebration, with the ultimate aim to weaken the strong Christian identity of the African American Community.

My thoughts: It's an opportunity for all men (people) of all persuasions, or lack of it, to celebrate together. I guess this may be too catholic, or universal, a thought for you? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

PS: I am sure it is not restricted/limited to African Americans.
