Don't you feel like this is a totally BS made-up holiday? What do you think? If you celebrate Kwanzaa, defend it.

It was a made up holiday to compete with Christmas and Chanukah

Saying that a holiday that many people treasure is ridiculous is being just DOWN RIGHT INGNORANT. Stand in the middle of a Jewish neighborhood and yell out that Hanukah is stupid, and see how long u last..... I don't celebrate Kwanzaa, but i'm sure as hell not gonna call it ridiculous. A lot of African-Americans celebrate it and i personally think that that's pretty cool.
Oh, and buy the way, next time u find a quarter lying on the ground. . . . . USE IT TO BUY A CLUE!!!!

I don't celebrate Kwanzaa, but I'll defend it regardless. It's no more a "BS made-up holiday" than any of our other holidays. Get out there more, dear. Your limited views are stunting your mental/emotional growth.

i dont think that Kwanzaa is stupid I dont celebrate the holiday but I know that it similar to the jewish hoilday in exchanging gifts the seven principals of Kwanzaa lighting of the candles for each day.
Alot of african americans celebrate thius holiday I guess its what you believe in or how you were raised. I think that they came out with this holiday around or about the late 60's or early 70's

Okay, say it IS made up,,,what is your problem with it? Do you think all occasions for celebration are BS? If you do, I would expect you are a pretty miserable soul. If you don't you are rather narrow minded and riding the fence here.

Kwanzaa is from Africa, I think any reason for people to celebrate is a wonderful thing.
