I read that Obama’s church celebrates Kwanzaa. Does that mean he celebrates Kwanzaa? If so, that would be a number of firsts. Obama could be the first black president of the U.S., and he could also be the first person I’ve ever heard of who actually celebrates Kwanzaa.

  1. Real story. I worked with three African immigrants at a Tech Center near Boston. They were really sharp well educated network guys who got along with everyone and were well liked. One day I was told that they had all gone to HR to complain that some one was being offensive based on their race/national origin. Turned out that some Black Americans had explained the “Afican Holiday” of Kwanza to them and they felt they were being made fun of because no such concept existed in any of their countries. They found the idea absurd.
