An African-American Celebration


The Kwanzaa Stamp

Welcome!

This humble web site has attracted and inspired hundreds of thousands of visitors since November of 1996 when it was born.
They come from many walks of life and from many countries. Some readily accept what has been laid down by Doctor Karenga, others question, but I feel that all leave with a new awareness of the world that surrounds them every day of the year.

I am proud to have continuously sponsored this web site since its beginning. It has not always been easy but I also have been inspired, particularly by the principle of Kuumba (creativity) "to do as much as we can to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it."

It is my hope that you too will be both inspired and uplifted by the spirit of Kwanzaa. Go forth and embrace the life that you have been given, embrace those around you, and share Kwanzaa, "the first fruits", with all. - doug

Note also that we have a new form to publicize your Kwanzaa-related event.
