A brief overview of Kwanzaa:

Kwanzaa is an annual celebration that emphasizes African family values and social principles, primarily recognized in the United States from December 26 to January 1. The celebration and its name were founded in 1966 by Maulana Karenga, an Africana studies professor at California State University, Long Beach, and an influential figure in Afrocentrism. Karenga derived the term kwanza, signifying “first,” from the Swahili phrase matunda ya kwanza, incorporating an extra a as the seventh letter to guarantee it contained sufficient letters for each of the seven children who were present at a previous celebration. The word Kwanzaa does not exist in Swahili. The concept of Kwanzaa originates from first-fruits celebrations in Southern Africa.
