Today is the first day of Kwanzaa, a very meaningful and principled seven day celebration in the Black American community. Each day is guided by a specific and purpose drive principle. The principle for today is, Ujoma, which means Unity in Swahili.
We begin our celebration being reminded to intentionally commit to unity in the Black race, in our community, within our nation, and of course, our family. Living While Black in America has been especially trying in 2025. If ever there was a need for Unity in Our Community, it is now.
History has taught us that we are a resilient, determined and phenomenal people. No matter the circumstance, Black folks rise. When all others have failed us, always, we have found strength in one another and survived.
On this first day of Kwanzaa 2025, be encouraged and be inspired to remember that with Unity In Our Community, ALL things are possible and that this, too, shall pass...
Happy Kwanzaa!
