One of our favorite inspirational Kwanzaa quotes:

Kwanzaa affirms that mothers and fathers of previous generations transmitted African Americans' existence and persistence to the mothers and fathers of today.  Pass it on.
Dorothy Winbush Riley

Other favorite inspirational Kwanzaa quotes:

The seven principles of Kwanzaa -- unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith -- teach us that when we come together to strengthen our families and communities and honor the lesson of the past, we can face the future with joy and optimism.
President Bill Clinton

Our children need the sense of specialness that comes from participating in a known and loved ritual.  They need the mastery of self-discipline that comes from order.  They need the self-awareness that comes from a knowledge of their past.  They need Kwanzaa as a tool for building their future and our own.
Jessica B. Harris

Kwanzaa is essentially a family holiday, whether it be the nuclear family, the extended family, or the communal family.
Jessica B. Harris

Another of our favorite inspirational Kwanzaa quotes:

The ultimate destiny and aspiration of the African people and twenty million American Negroes are magnificently bound up together forever.
Lorraine Hansberry

Kwanzaa is a special time to remember the ancestors, the bridge builders, and the leaders.
Dorothy Winbush Riley

Kwanzaa does not replace Christmas and is not a religious holiday.  It is a time to focus on Africa and African-inspired culture and to reinforce a value system that goes back for generations.
Eric V. Copage

The fact that there is nowhere on the African continent a holiday named Kwanzaa ... Kwanzaa is an Afro-American holiday which by its very definition reflects the dual character of the identity and experience of the Afro-American people.
Maulana Karengas

Inspired Kwanzaa Gifts.

  Kente cloth scarf, 'Lokpo'

Hand woven Kente cloth shawl
Thick yarns add rich texture to this brilliant kente cloth shawl by the Gobah Tengey-Seddoh Family. Strips of black, white and cool indigo in 100% cotton make a dramatic and handsome color combination. Designed and woven of coarse local cotton in the 12th century, the lokpo pattern means "heavy or thick in texture." Each strip requires considerable effort, and the looms are worked with both hands and feet.
