Kwanzaa is a week-long celebration of African culture and community, recognized internationally, particularly in countries with large African descendant populations. Founded by Maulana Karenga in 1966, it aims to reconnect Black communities with African traditions. The holiday is based on seven principles (Nguzo Saba) celebrated daily, represented by a kinara with seven candles. Celebrations include decorating homes, sharing fresh fruits, and engaging in community activities. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
