Kwanzaa

Toledo’s long-time organizer of Kwanzaa, Diane Gordon, has passed the torch to her grandson, Rodney. They talked together about the meaning of the African American holiday.

The Harambee Youth Organization celebrates Kwanzaa through traditional African dances.

A group of Cincinnati children are performing in “The Eagles Who Thought They Were Chickens” — a retelling of an old African folktale that sheds light on the principles of Kwanzaa.
