 KWANZAA ZAWADI CREATION FOR CHILDREN

 

The principles of Kwanzaa provide a healthy and balanced way for people of African descent to stay focused on values that enrich us.  We can eliminate faulty ways of thinking that create unnecessary dependencies in our lives. Instead of waiting for parents to provide gifts that we sometimes cannot afford, children learn to create items that show their appreciation for their loved ones.  

Bring your children to this free Kwanzaa preparation activity.

the basis for our significance

A journey away from religious divisions and toward unity

  What color is God, The Most High, The Creator?   One of the biggest unhealed wounds among people of African descent is rooted in how we worship. Do people who were stolen and enslaved worship the God of their enslavers?  Is this mental slavery?   Join us as Dr. Judith Ann, joined by Sonia Bailey, points people affected by bias to common ground despite faith differences. Learn facts to consider on  your journey to full freedom and healing.

Leader's Focus Group

Focus Group #2 Saturday, May 7, 2022

Leader's Focus Group

Are you a leader within your social group who has done some work on your own healing from the effects of bias?  We need your voice at this inaugural focus group.


We're meeting in Dania, FL to identify the areas that we most need to focus on to get well.


Once we pinpoint the things that ail us, we can apply the cures that already exist within the community, and we can identify the solutions we still need to create.  Let's really talk about things like internalized racism, 'qualifying', freeing our minds, and more.
