Happy kwanza 🙏🏾‼️UJIMA Has anyone been observing the Holiday. If so in what way have you participated ? I attended the Hyati Heritage Center opening festivities in the BULL CITY. There were several vendors & a relatively small but enthusiastic crowd. I purchased several items including 3 books: The Iceman Inheritance, The Isis Papers, The African Origin of Civilization.

    I personally have not. Once I learned that Maulana Karenga was getting guns from the LAPD and using them to attack the Panthers I was done with him and his holiday.

    According to a former undercover agent for LAPD’s Criminal Conspiracy Division, Louis Tackwood, Karenga was financed, armed and encouraged in the attack on the Panthers by the police. Tackwood claims that he acted as the liaison between CCS and Karenga’s United Slaves. “I contacted Ron Karenga and gave him orders to the effect that was given to me,” Tackwood states in a book based on his confessions, “The Glass House Tapes,” “that he was to curtail the Panther Party’s growth no matter what it cost.” Tackwood’s allegations were confirmed in a lie detector test conducted by Chris Gugas, a past president of the American Polygraph Association, who prominently displays an autographed picture of J. Edgar Hoover in his office.

    I just learned about this too, I will never even think about Kwanzaa again.
    Think about it. This nigga was fighting the Panthers, talk about the definition of off code. Even if he wasn’t a government asset he was still being a detriment to our success as a people. Now he got an academic job I guess that’s his retirement package for being a good negro.
