Waiting for Ma'at

Newsbusters tries to spread a little Holiday light on the ancient Africa festival of Kwanza. Oops sorry I dropped an A. Kwanzaa.
While in the Wilmington Star we have the blindly obvious actually being stated in an American paper.
Columbia, S.C. | It has been four decades since Kwanzaa was created as an African-American celebration of family and community, but in that time it has not resonated widely in South Carolina, a state where one-third of the population is black.

"I personally don't know a single person who celebrates the holiday," said Marcus Cox, founding director of the African-American Studies Program at The Citadel.
