Ujamaa also stresses self-reliance in the building strengthening and controlling of the economics of our own community. Check back tomorrow for day 5! Remember to encourage one another!
Commitment to the practice of shared social wealth and the work necessary to achieve it. It grows out of the fundamental communal concept that social wealth belongs to the masses of people who created it, and that no one should have such an unequal amount of wealth that it gives
Sharing wealth is another form of communitarian exchange. But it is essential because, without the principle and practice of shared wealth, the social conditions for exploitation, oppression and inequality as well as deprivation and suffering are increased.
So if you seek change in your family, school, or community it starts with you! Make the change, encourage others, and reconstruct the mindset of the norm. Self determination is key in a cultural change.
The second day of Kwanzaa honors self-determination (kujichagulia). The second principle expresses itself as both commitment and practice.
On this, the second day, families are meant to light the red candle.
The red candle is symbolic of the effort a person, family, school or community makes. The lesson is that we light the red candle to reinforce the value of work and effort. Frederick Douglass reminds us that โIf there is no struggle there is no progress.โ
And it calls on us to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, suffering and struggling peoples of the world in the cooperative achievement of these goods.โ
Tomorrow, we will highlight day 2 of Kwanzaa with the principle of kujichagulia(self-determination).
Happy first day of Kwanzaa!
Kwanzaa is a festival that celebrates the holiday through community building and honoring seven key principles. Starting today on December 26th the first day of Kwanzaa is called โUmojaโ better known in the states as โUnityโ.
It urges us to practice a principled and peaceful togetherness rooted in mutual respect; justice; care and concern; security of person; and equitably shared goods.
