What is Ujamaa?
Ujamaa, one of the seven principles of Kwanzaa, means "cooperative economics" and focuses on the importance of supporting and building Black-owned businesses.
Why Juneteenth?
This day is a powerful reminder of freedom, resilience, and the ongoing fight for justice, and it’s an opportunity to honor Black history, culture, and achievements.
