Jesse Jackson thought up this "holiday" a couple of decades back. It's a Crow Jim thing -- reverse discrimination, that is. There is no such holiday among any of the real nations in Africa.

A "holiday" made up by a criminal in prison in the 60's.

It's basically a holiday that Black people made up so they'd have something for themselves, rather than the white man's holiday.
