Kwanzaa: It’s Time for the Annual Con Job!
by Don Boys (12/21/09)
Kwanzaa is a massive con job aimed at gullible Blacks, especially those who want to “seek their African roots.” It seems too many Blacks have been very careless in buying into anything that seems to support their “cause.”
For the record, Kwanzaa is not religious. It has nothing to do with Christ or the Bible. It is racist and was founded by a man with a criminal record. The AP report on December 17 that some Blacks “consider[ing] it a pagan holiday are taking issue with its founder, a black nationalist and ex-con – he was convicted of torturing two women.” The article also correctly revealed that the holiday came out of the Black Power movement the 1960s.
If Blacks (or anyone else) want to celebrate Kwanzaa that is their right; however, it is my right to set the record straight. Kwanzaa is grounded in violence, corruption, and deceit. Furthermore, it has an admitted humanist foundation, so professing Christians should not go near the thing. Neither should black Americans!
The U.S. Postal Service put its stamp (pun intended) of approval on the pagan holiday by issuing a stamp honoring Kwanzaa which only proves how shallow, senseless, and shameful the Postal Service is. Moreover, the New York Times and other major media have positively pitched Kwanzaa as legitimate. Those people wear the “merit badge” of political correctness. In fact, they flaunt it without shame.
On December 26, 1966, Ron Karenga and his family and friends lit a candle at the kick-off of Kwanzaa, a new holiday to remember their African roots. However, Karenga admitted to the Washington Post that Kwanzaa was not African and they hated whites. Karenga wrote what I call, the mission statement for Kwanzaa fanatics: “The sevenfold path of blackness is think black, talk black, act black, create black, buy black, vote black, and live black.” That is black separatism and racist to the core. Let me suggest it should be “Think American, talk American, act American, create American, buy American, vote American and live American.” For those Blacks (and any others) who don’t like America or prefer another culture, I’ll help them migrate out of this country! There is plenty of room in Africa.
While some of the “seven principles” (unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith) of Kwanzaa seem commendable, they must be read within the total socialist, Marxist, and anti-white context in which they were developed by a very unstable guy.
The Kwanzaa Information Center also notes that the Kwanzaa flag “has become the symbol of devotion for African people in America to establish an independent African nation on the North American Continent.”
Into the turbulent, tortured, and trying 1960s entered Ron Karenga, founder of United Slaves (a violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers) and a dupe of the FBI. The tension between the Black Panthers and the United Slaves reached the highest level over who would head up the new Afro-American Studies department at UCLA. Each radical group supported different candidates.
In 1969, two Black Panthers killed two followers of Karenga and were sentenced to prison where they escaped with the help of a Black guard and fled the country. The fat was in the fire as the Black Panthers and Karenga’s United Slaves confronted each other.
On September 17, 1971, Ron Karenga was sentenced one to ten years to the slammer on counts of felonious assault and false imprisonment. At his trial, Karenga’s sanity was in question and a psychiatrist declared, “This man now represents a picture which can be considered both paranoid and schizophrenic with hallucinations and elusions, inappropriate affect, disorganization, and impaired contact with the environment.” The psychiatrist observed that Karenga talked to his blanket and imaginary persons and believed that he had been attacked by dive-bombers!
My two-year-old grandson also talks to his blanket, has imaginary friends, and believes he has been attacked by peg-legged, one-eyed Caribbean pirates but he has not been offered a position at a major university as was Karenga! Eight years later California State University at Long Beach made Karenga the head of its Black Studies Department! I think he should be making license plates in a state prison.
Blacks can celebrate whatever they choose but I will remind them that if it is Kwanzaa, they recognize a “holiday” that was designed by a hateful, bigoted, black Marxist who reportedly talks to his blanket, has imaginary friends and believed he was attacked by dive-bombers! Watch out, they’re coming out of the clouds at the two o’clock position!
Maybe Blacks and Whites should be more careful in choosing their holidays and their heroes.
