Kwanzaa starts December 26, and runs through the first of the year…. and it’s a cruel exploitation of Black Americans by their own

‘Tis the season when Political Correctness goes into overdrive and we are expected to accept on face value a fake “holiday” that you have probably been indoctrinated to believe is African in origin. Called “Kwanzaa” it sounds African enough I suppose, unless you ask an African, but if you were a violent black separatist here in the mid-1960s then you know full well what it is.

Dr. Maulana Karenga in 1966 headed the “United Slaves Organization,” a California-based para-military group that was a rival to the Black Panthers.  But unlike the Panther terror organization, which was in business strictly for politics and the violence, United Slaves was considered a cult. Like most cult figures, Karenga is an interesting character in his own right. His rap sheet includes 4 years in the pen for conspiracy and assault for torture. Seems that two of his followers, Deborah Jones and Gail Davis fell out of favor with Karenga.

Out of the slammer, Karenga filled out his resume by converting to Marxism. That was the final qualification needed in the eyes of the State of California, which promptly made him a professor at UC Long Beach. By 1989, he was Chairman of the Black Studies Department, a position from which he retired in 2002.

But I digress.

History of Karenga’s Kwanzaa fraud

Ronald McKinley Everett, alias;Maulana Ron Karenga, Ron Karenga, M. Ron Karenga and Dr. Maulana Karenga

“Dr” Karenga’s real name is Ron N. Everett.  In the 1960′s he gave himself the title “maulana,” Swahili for “master teacher.” He was born in 1941 on a poultry farm in Maryland, the fourteenth child of a Baptist minister. He moved to the Land of Fruits and Nuts in the late 1950s to attend Los Angeles Community College.  From there he went onto UCLA, where he got a Master’s degree in political science and African Studies and began  marketing himself to confused and concerned Black Americans as an alternative to the violent and radicalized Panthers a  ”cultural nationalist” giving blacks a sense of roots (no pun intended) and a common thread.

In 1966 Karenga created a pseudo-spiritual ritual to go with his cult; he called it “Kwanzaa.” Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson  (a black author and civil rights activist who works to educate American blacks about their own history) terms Kwanzaa the “black anti-Christmas,” and says that is why the “celebration” takes place December 26 – January 1.

The word “Kwanzaa” is a made up word that Karenga attributes to the Swahili phrase “matunda yakwanza.” The only problem with Karenga’s attribution is that the actual English translation of that phrase is “first fruit” and the phrase refers to harvest time and a celebration of a successful growing season. No known culture on Earth celebrates a harvest ritual of any kind in the dead of winter. What’s more,Africa has always been and remains a starkly divided land of individual tribes, each with their own ritual calendars and few of which share more in common than skin color and hatred for the other tribes.

Political correctness and media ignorance have also thus far managed to omit from the record that for the ancestors of American blacks Swahili (and any rituals that go with it) would be as foreign as the Dutch spoken by the slave traders who brought them here. Swahili is anEast African language, most black slaves brought toAmericacame from a continent away (West Africa), and the only thing they have in common with other Africans is skin color. Same difference if you walked into downtown Beijing and started spouting off in Japanese, or plopped a white American in theUkraineto ask directions in English… absolutely no connection.

Incidentally, Karenga makes no effort to hide his fakery. In 1978 he told the Washington Post that: “People think it’s [Kwanzaa] African, but it’s not. I came up with Kwanzaa because black people in this country wouldn’t celebrate it if they knew it was American.”

In a cruel joke, Kwanzaa cons American blacks into celebrating their ancestors’ enslavement with bits and pieces of stolen culture from the Old and New Worlds to go along with its fictional African setting. For instance, the Kwanzaa day of “muhindi” is when ears of corn are set aside to signify “children and the future.” Corn was first cultivated by Mexican Indians and carried around the world (including to Africa) by the Conquistadors and other white conquerors, explorers and even the slave traders. There was no corn inAfrica before Africans became that land’s largest export.

Today thousands of American blacks not only unwittingly rejoice annually in the enslavement of their ancestors, and the descendants of the global, white, economic power structure that enslaved their ancestors has discovered that Kwanzaa is a potentially lucrative event and are rapidly commercializing the holiday. The media go along by trading advertising money for suppressing the violent beginnings of yet another attempt at cultural eugenics aimed toward blacks. Thus, Kwanzaa takes American blacks full circle from being slaves to the plantation owner, to slaves to Visa and MasterCard while bastardizing their own heritage and history.

The North losing the Civil War couldn’t have done it better. That’s sad, but this time it’s self-inflicted.
