    Kwanzaa is a week-long, cultural celebration that starts December 26th and ends January 1st. During Kwanzaa, people light candles on a kinara. There are three red candles, one black candle, and three green candles. Each day of the holiday, people discuss one of the empowering principles that promotes community and unity. The seven principles of Kwanzaa are (1) umoja (unity); (2) kujichagulia (self-determination); (3) ujima (collective work and responsibility); (4) ujamaa (coperative economics); (5) nia (purpose); (6) kuumba (creativity); and (7) imani (faith). The holiday was created in 1966 by the civil rights and cultural activist, Maulana Karenga to reflect upon, commemorate, and recommit to constructive African ideals.
