In this episode I discuss how Day 2 (Kujichagulia) of Kwanzaa is important to OUR existence as a People. Unfortunately, we have been living life as defined by another people. Kujichagulia is all about SELF-DETERMINATION - To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves and speak for ourselves.


1. We must Define who we are as a people...

  •  If you had to define yourself, what would that definition be?
  • Who are we as a people? 

2. We must Name ourselves as a people...

  • What is your name and what does it mean?
  • What do we call ourselves as a people?

3. Create for ourselves as a people...

  • How are you able to sustain yourself daily based on your skills and expertise? 
  • Can you provide shelter and food or bathe and cloth yourself without another people?

4. We must Speak for ourselves...

  • What is our language?
  • What are the things we want?
