The Search for Kwanzaa.

Where’s Kwanzaa been? Am I right? Seriously. I’ve been searching for almost 36 hours to find someone in this world who celebrates Kwanzaa. This holiday has an official website, and I can’t find people who celebrate it. What?

I’ve started asking people if they’re celebrating a holiday anytime soon. I usually get a particularly blank stare followed by ‘…um, Christmas…’ Well, of course. You can’t celebrate Christmas and Kwanzaa. That would just be ridiculous. We always learned about Kwanzaa in public elementary school, so was it all a lie?

Somewhere, there is someone who observes this special holiday. And I’m determined to find him/her. The search continues.

    Kwanzaa was invented by a sociology professor. I believe it is the only recognized holiday with such a history. This may explain the infrequency with which it is observed.

    So they emphasized it in your public elementary school. Hmmn. I will permit you to draw your own conclusions there!

    In cartoons now, if they celebrate Christmas, there is also a Jewish person celebrating Chanukah and a black person who celebrates Kwaanza. But most black people celebrate Christmas. So, isn’t that racist?

    Where’s someone who celebrates Festivus? That’s the real question. I need someone to air my grievances to.
