Kwanzaa uses the Swahili language and was established on the premise of celebrating the African values of "family, community and culture” for the African-American community. Observance of Kwanzaa begins December 26 and ends January 1. Kwanzaa is supposed to be an African holiday to recognize the Nguzo Saba, or “Seven Principles”. The “Seven Principles” are Umoja (Unity), Kuji-chagulia (Self-determination), Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility), Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics), Nia (Purpose), Kuumba (Creativity), and Imani (Faith).
