On Monday December 29 at 3 pm the Kwanzaa Park Neighbors will celebrate the Fourth Night of Kwanzaa, focusing on the Principle Ujamaa. After the traditional ritual the Karamu (traditional foods) will be served. The “Becoming Young Ladies” of the Padua Center will also be there to help in the service.
The fourth night of Kwanzaa “Ujamaa” (cooperative economics) is celebrated by lighting the second red candle on the Kinara and coming together in support for black-owned businesses, with emphasis on maintenance and operations. It is a time for celebration of the idea of pooling resources together in unity to benefit the entire community. Emphasis is placed upon support of local businesses and Black Owned businesses where available.
Come and celebrate “Ujamaa” with the Kwanzaa Park Neighbors. There will be Karamu served at the conclusion in the celebration and everyone is welcome.
