The UConn School of Social Work's Black History 365 programs continue with "The Principles of Kwanzaa," held via Zoom on Dec. 2 from 6-7:30 p.m.
This interactive workshop led by artist and educator Aisha Abdelmula will provide a contextual history of Kwanzaa and identify its core principles. By learning the significance of Kwanzaa often simply shrugged off as a “made-up holiday,” we can begin to introduce and refamiliarize ourselves in cultural traditions that affirm Black livelihood.
Participants will reflect on their personal identities and learn tangible ways to honor the tradition of Kwanzaa in their everyday lives.
