What is Kwanzaa?

[Edit]
Kwanzaa is celebrated by some African-Americans in the United States of America.
The colors, black, red, and green, represent the candles and seven principles of the long lasting "Christmas and New Years" get together celebration.

Kwanzaa is a non-religious African American holiday which celebrates family, community, and culture. It is celebrated for seven days: December 26 - January 1.

The name Kwanzaa is derived from the phrase "matunda ya kwanza" which means "first fruits" in Swahili. The kinara is the center of the Kwanzaa setting and represents the original stalk from which we came: our ancestry.
