KWANZAA
THE AFRICAN AMERICAN HOLIDAY
See It - Hear It From the Creator Himself
Dr. Maulana Karenga, Creator of Kwanzaa,
appeared on my award-winning "Wanda’s Café' television talk show, teaching how to
celebrate Kwanzaa, the African American holiday. At the taping of the show, Dr. Karenga was accompanied by
his wife, Professor Tiamoyo Karenga.
"Wanda’s Café" is one of three cable television shows that I created, produced, and hosted. The first in San Jose "Community Issues"; the second in Pasadena "Not For Black Women Only", and "Wanda’s Café" in Los Angeles, California.
