Making time to ponder and honor the seven principles that weave through Kwanzaa?
The annual observance, which began on Dec. 26, grants people the room and reflection to consider the holiday, its meaning, and those important principles, which include the time-honored tenets of unity, self-determination, and more.
You can honor those principles at a joyful festivity, a happening that will feature "... cultural performances, traditional food, and a marketplace showcasing unique crafts and gifts."
