A Kwanzaa Celebration - Echoes of Africa (1996) | Dorian Harewood
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 жов 2024
- This program honors the uniquely African-American festival Kwanzaa. From December 26 through January 1, this relatively young holiday (devised in 1966 by Dr. Maulana Karenga as an expression of black culture) celebrates the past and gives hope for the future. In A Celebration of Kwanzaa, film star Dorian Harewood (Roots, I'll Fly Away) provides an overview of Kwanzaa with instructions for observing the holiday. Dressed in beautiful formal African attire, Harewood is inspiring as he explains how to celebrate this joyous occasion with family and friends. The production is lovely, the "set" filled with African art and artifacts, and the traditional costumes reflect the dignity and beauty of Africa. For a basic overview of Kwanzaa, this tape is highly recommended. - Videolibrarian.com

Kwanzaa is a beautiful Pan African cultural celebration for seven days.
I have been celebrating Kwanzaa for twenty-eight years in London.
Kwanzaa is our Pan African cultural holiday socially, politically, spiritually, economically & culturally 100%..
Thank you so much. This answers my prayers. I was thinking what will I get my kids to watch this Kwanzaa; and this will do perfectly. I love it. It's very beautiful.
👍🏽❤️👊🏿
These things that you show us today touch deep down in my heart and bring tears that we have been robbed about lifestyle from Africa Jimmy Lamar
I find this strange and privileging that in East Africa Kenya that a people once were in touch with their roots. Shout-out Dr Sabi. God is all y'all, like if you agree!
That was so lovely.
Unity
Common ground
The Ancestors
Respect for this thought provoking share
"We are all the product of the love of thousands "
Wishing you all happy Kwanzaa
Prayers that hearts that don't respect will open to love❤
Amen 🙏🏾
Nobody in Africa celebrates Kwanzaa. It's a made-up Holiday by some black American.
Thank you all for sharing such beautiful information. I just pray that many of us will put away those old false holidays and embrace ours. Peace unto you.

Dombé, a PanAfrican Festive Celebration!!!
Partial announcement and presentation of Dombé, a celebration of PanAfricanism of Festivities by Dr. Bamba(S.C.), H.c.
The prefix "Don" (Dom) in Primary Mandé means Dance and party and the suffix "bé" means big.
Dombé has 10 Principles based on the 10 Commandments of Conservative PanAfricanism which are as follows:
1. Believing in one Supreme God.
2. Believing in the Spirits of Nature.
3. Believing in Ancestor Spirits.
4. Believing in Afro - Optimism.
5. Believing in Actions for Moderation and Modesty.
6. Believing in the Worship of God through the Ancestors and Spirits materialized by appropriate Idols.
7. Believing in a Job Well Done in Morality.
8. Believing in the Practices and Preservations of our Major Cultural and Linguistic Heritages.
9. Believing in Humanism, Goodness of All Kinds and Not the Contrary.
10. Believing in Just and Equitable Laws in Phase with Our Socio - Cultural Paradigms.
The Celebration takes place over 10 Days, from the 1st Commandment to the 10th in the respective order of the 10 Commandments.
For its beginnings, the Celebrations will be more or less in the Forms of Wishes, written and / or oral presentations or presentations, Presentations of Videos and / or Audios and others all adequate to each Day relating to each Commandment.
At the moment, the dates are flexible given the African (Kamates) and Diasporic contingencies.
For this reason, the dates of December 24 to January 2 are currently selected for Our Virtual Celebrations for this Year 2022.
Happy Virtual Dombé Celebrations from Dr. Bamba(S.C.), H.c.

I like that girl was dancing like a African
No boom-boom with soul brother!
Dorian Hazelnut within, thank you kindly... seeing what's wrong
My family doesn’t celebrate Kwanzaa. ❤🖤💚
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Haaa, they had to get actors because NOBODY celebrates kwanza......😂😂😂btw, wasn't that actor in Full Metal Jacket??
Strange how Maulana Karenga (born Ronald Everett) made up Kwanzaa as an alternative to Christmas, which he says is a “White holiday,” when Ethiopia was the first Kingdom to adopt Christianity as its state religion.
Why is this not on tv in 2022? I thought people said they want equality, seems like it's just political games
Not interested in kwansa, I will stick with Christmas.
People may think it’s a modern holiday, but the concepts behind it is more ancestral, historical and cultural.
Can white folks celebrate Kwanza? Or is that considered "cultural appropriation"?
