Imara

/ee-MAH-rah/

Strong, resolute

 

 

 

 

 

Kinara

/kee-NAH-rah/

represents the original stalk from which all African ancestors came

 

Imara and the Kinara represents empowerment. Kwanzaa is a non-religious holiday which encourages black people to reflect on the strength and knowledge of our ancestors. Consciously coming together during this time of year allows US to build better and brighter family units and communities.

LET'S SHINE A LIGHT ON KWANZAA TOGETHER to create unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperate economics, purpose, creativity, and faith.
