Kwanzaa Explained and How Black Folks Can Celebrate It - Beyond the Scenes | The Daily Show

Im from Angola, and our currency is called Kwanza

Roy's southern manners are shining through like the sun.

The daily show keeps going… and someday we will welcome a special guest in the house; “Trevor “🎉❤🎉🎉

I appreciate what you do Roy. Thank you

I live in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan, USA 🇺🇸. We celebrate Hanukkah, Christmas and Kwanzaa (in that order). It makes for an interesting December. Enjoy your holidays.

This segment is amazing. I was born in Angola 🇦🇴 and the name of our main river is Kwanza (and also the money). I live in the Netherlands and this year will definitely celebrate the other Kwanzaa. Peace 🙌🏿

I am a white woman in a northern state who did a college research paper on collard greens in African-American culture, and Dr. Harris' books were a notable part of my research. I had to address how difficult it is to trace this history of food in AA culture because it wasn't written down. I think I even cited her saying that the culture passes down traditions as oral & demonstrative more than written & read - to the detriment of other cultures who want to know. Dr. Harris' work is truly priceless. I found so many books on the food history of so many cultures - even Native American food history is documented pretty well considering the atrocities they've had to deal with. I love this whole video. I did not keep up with her work after graduating in 2008 and am looking up her work on Amazon now! Thank you for posting this!

I'm from Harlem and have celebrated Kwanzaa for most of my adult life.

A dear friend gave me the book when it came out and I have celebrated Kwanzaa every year since.

Great segment! It made me reconsider my thoughts about the celebration.
