video of SDARJ Kwanzaa Celebration

In case you missed it (or just want to view it again) the Southern Delaware Alliance for Racial Justice (SDARJ) celebrated the African-American holiday Kwanzaa during the December Town Hall. You can view the SDARJ Kwanzaa celebration above or at: https://youtu.be/XHupx48WXLU

During the actual celebration of Kwanzaa, from December 26 to January 1, it is customary to greet friends and family with the Swahili phrase “Habari Gani,” meaning “What is the news?” Community activist Waynne Paskins answered the question as she explained the history, meaning, and symbols of Kwanzaa. Lighting candles for each of the Seven Principles, participants wove traditional themes of family, community, and unity.
