Kwanzaa turns out to be ... koo-koo

Many thanks to Son-in-Law #1, Nathan Greer, who, after reading my "Happy Holidays" post, sent the following eye-opening links about the illegimaticy of the supposedly African-American-affirming celebration, Kwanzaa.

Joseph Farah blows the whistle on Kwanzaa.

Tony Snow blows the whistle on Kwanzaa.

Ann Coulter blows the whistle on Kwanzaa.

Rev. Joseph Lee Patterson blows the whistle on Kwanzaa.

I get the feeling there might be many more whistle-blowers if we look for them!

Kwanzaa's origins and associations appear to exploit, rather than honor, African-Americans. Thanks, Nathan -- I will no longer be an ignorant perpetuator of the Kwanzaa myth.
