Christmas Bad; Kwanzaa OK
We read:
“A judge has refused to stop a Shelby County lawmaker from holding a Kwanzaa party in a public building, ruling that the celebration would not be a religious gathering.
County Commissioner Henri Brooks organized the party, open to the public, scheduled for Wednesday night at the county’s main administration building.
Probate Court Clerk Chris Thomas filed a lawsuit to block it, arguing he was denied permission to hold a Christmas party in a county building.
Judge Walter L. Evans dismissed the suit. Lawyers for Brooks argued the party would not violate rules against religious gatherings in public buildings.

CourtZero has a scan of the entire Quotable Karenga online. It’s a 1966 book which is, “written by the founder of Kwanzaa and spells out his philosophies.“
And what about New Years !!! when are real Americans going to realize why the new year begins on January 1st ?
It is the feast of the Holy Circumcision but nobody seems to want to acknowledge its RELIGIOUS importance. The New Year begins because that is when the baby jesus first shed his blood for all of us
Let’s put the foreskin back into New Years !!
