Happy Umoja
Today is Umoja... yup the 1st day of Kwanzaa. People need to stop treating Kwanzaa like some underrated Holiday. If you was down with the movement, you would realize that you get 7 nights instead of Christmas' one. I remember being taught to recognize these days & principles for they are what life is all about... this is just BiLLz way of commemorating deserved holiday.
