Holiday Collections - Virtual Book Display: Kwanzaa

Although Kwanzaa is an important cultural event for many families, there are a limited number of books and films illustrating this rich cultural tradition. Therefore, we've provided a collection of suggested works that showcase the seven principles of Kwanzaa: 

1. Umoja (Unity)
2. Kujichagulia (Self-Determination)
3. Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility)
4. Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics)
5. Nia (Purpose)
6. Kuumba (Creativity),
7. Imani (Faith).
