Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Traditionally, Kwanzaa brings family, friends, and the community together for a winter celebration. But Kwanzaa can be a part of your life year-round. Steeped in cultural richness, Kwanzaa is observed by millions of people of African descent who observe it for its seven inspiring, unifying principles. Whether you're a first-time celebrant or a seasoned veteran, here is a must-have reference for making Kwanzaa special for you and your loved ones-whatever your faith or belief system. With this book, you'll learn: Planning for daily observance and festive gatherings; the seven principles at the heart of Kwanzaa; how to involve everyone in your Karamu (feast); Recipes for traditional dishes you can make at home; Zawadi (gifts) that reflect your values; Popular Kwanzaa songs and even one Kwanzaa rap; where to find the best Kwanzaa accessories.

Includes discography (pages 203-214) and filmography (pages 233-237).
