Kwanzaa is a celebration that started in the black nationalist movement of the 1960s. It was created as a way to help African Americans reconnect with their African cultural and historical heritage. The name Kwanzaa comes from the Swahili phrase matunda ya kwanza, meaning first fruits of the harvest. During the early years of Kwanzaa, Karenga said that it was meant to be an alternative to Christmas, that Jesus was psychotic, and that Christianity was a white religion that black people should shun.
Some tend to make foods that they may always eat where others will do more research and may serve a more traditional dish, she says. Foods that are traditionally served during Kwanzaa include chicken and fish dishes, plantain (a cousin to the banana), coconut dishes, sweet potato and yam dishes, nuts and greens. A karamu feast prepared by Kuumba included fried chicken, red beans and rice, yams, corn bread muffins and sweet potato squares.
