Happy Kwanzaa! Day 7: Imani - Faith
Tuesday, January 01, 2019
Greeting: Habari Gani?! (What's going on?)
Response: Imani! [ee-mah-nee]
Today is the seventh day of Kwanzaa. On this day we celebrate the principle of faith. According to the Nguzo Saba (seven principles), faith means: "To believe, with all our heart, in our Creator, our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders, and the righteousness and victory of our struggle."
We must have confidence in ourselves, in our leaders, teachers, parents and in the righteousness and victory of our struggle, faith that through hard work, we can regain our rightful place of prominence as a free, proud and productive people.
Kwanzaa is a seven-day celebration for a year-long practice. Remember the Nguzo Saba all-year-long!
Harambee!
