ok, from my understanding, kwanza wa created so that whatever culture celebrates it could have a holiday, cuz Jews have hanukah, and Christians(and most of the world) have christmas, Kwanza is completely pointless, why the hell was it created?

It was set up as alternative to the traditional Christmas celebrating. What was the motive?
If it was to enhance the characterics that it stresses and teaches; all in good. Why can't these behaviours be based on everyday teaching of kids, not just during Kawanza?
If it was set up to prove to the "white man" then that was not a good reason, either.

To celebrate African-American heritage, from what I understand. You seem upset by that. Why would it bother you if someone wants to celebrate who they are and where they came from?

its not pointless to those who arent christians or jews! its only pointless to you because you personally don't celebrate it. don't be so narrow minded.
