Habari Gani! All are invited to our day - 2 Central Florida Kwanzaa Celebration of Kujichagulia at the Winter Park Community Center, sponsored by The Equity Council Corp., The Pankwasum Kwanzaa Collective, and in partnership with the Hannibal Square Heritage Center and the Winter Park Community Center. Kwanzaa is a cultural holiday created in 1966 and is a seven-day-long community celebration of African culture and an acknowledgment of seven moral principles referred to as Nguzo Saba (En-goo-zoh-Sah-Bah). On the second day of Kwanzaa, Tuesday, December 27th, 2020, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., celebrate the principle of self-determination, Kujichagulia, with the lighting of Kinara and the second candle of Kwanzaa, the Red Candle-acknowledging the Pan-African movement and red, black and green Pan-African flag colors given to us by our ancestor the honorable Marcus Garvey.
Join us at the Winter Park Community Center for the day-long celebration of Kujichagulia and the principle of self-determination! Our celebration will include good food, drumming, dancing, and musical performances, plus a motivational panel discussion with special guest Beverly Page (President & CEO of Orlando Community Arts), Raymond Warthen (Co-Founder & President of Infinite Zion Farms), and LaVonda Wilder ( CEO Eatonville Chamber of Commerce Incorporated).
