Only about 12% of blacks celebrate Kwanzaa per the most recent study on it so yeah, kind of a joke holiday. Dont see how it can be called a ripoff of Christmas and Hannukah though as it has nothing in common besides being held around the same time of year. For that matter Christmas and Hannukah have little in common besides time of the year at that.

A fake holiday that blatantly rips off Christmas and Hanukkah.  I have nothing against celebrating black culture, but isn't that why we have Black History month in February?

Yes, there's no need to celebrate black history or culture in any of the other 11 months.

Oldiesfreak seems like one of those who would complain about the lack of a "White History Month".
I don't care if there's a White History Month.  And if people want to celebrate Kwanzaa, then that's their right as Americans, and I respect that.  It's not for me, though.

That's the whole point of kwanzaa.  It's for black folks.  White people don't and aren't supposed to celebrate kwanzaa.

The vast majority of blacks don't celebrate it either.
