Exciting times as we anticipate the New Year on the 6th day of #Kwanzaa! Today’s value is kuumba, or creativity! Anyone who knows me knows how closely I hold creativity to my heart, so tonight is a special night. To create anything is as natural as breath, and yet it also takes immense courage. Yet it is just what we do. 🌽 🌽 🌽 #kwanzaatable #economiccrafts #kinara #simplecrafts #creative #holidays #happyholidays #africanamerican #africanamericanculture #africanamericancrafter #blackgirlmagic #blackgirlswhoblog #blackcreatives #aerialview #candles #corn #firstfruits #unitycup #blackteachers #6candles #kuumba #creativity https://www.instagram.com/p/BsEfpijluHR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=sl948fwb4tec

On this final night of #Kwanzaa, we have seven candles burning bright. I placed a small bowl of black eye peas on the Kwanzaa table as a symbol of good luck in the new year! 🌽After a meal of black eye peas, rice, and collard greens, we gave Kwanzaa gifts. 🌽 We ponder today’s principle, which is Imani, or faith. This definition is particularly beautiful: “To believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.” So. beautiful. 🌽 This Kwanzaa I relied heavily on the Official Kwanzaa Website (http://www.officialkwanzaawebsite.org/) Thanks to whoever made it! 🌽 I have loved this exploration of Kwanzaa and I will come back to it over the course of 2019. ❤️ 💚 🖤 #kwanzaatable #economiccrafts #kinara #simplecrafts #creative #holidays #happyholidays #africanamerican #africanamericanculture #africanamericancrafter #blackgirlmagic #blackgirlswhoblog #blackcreatives #xproii #candles #corn #firstfruits #unitycup #blackteachers #7candles #imani #faith #goodvibes #goodluck #newyear #2019 #january (at United States) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsHLk3iFXJK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jxtxffkcw17l

On this 5th day of #Kwanzaa, we reflect upon my favorite African American value, Nia, meaning purpose. 🌽 With this view of the kinara, you can see that my “black” candle is actually blue! I couldn’t find a matching black candle, so I decoupaged a black cocktail napkin over a blue candle. 🖤 💚 ❤️ #kwanzaatable #economiccrafts #kinara #simplecrafts #creative #holidays #happyholidays #africanamerican #africanamericanculture #africanamericancrafter #blackgirlmagic #blackgirlswhoblog #blackcreatives #aerialview #candles #corn #firstfruits #unitycup #blackteachers #5candles #nia #purpose (at Broward County, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsCDCAGFaOd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1u6ewj6uiuvdi
