December 26 is the first day of the African-American celebration called Kwanzaa. It is dedicated to Umoja, unity. The Bible also tells us that it is good and pleasant to dwell together in unity. In this session we discussed the amazing life concepts taught in the Kwanzaa traditions as well as several African traditions that are good for the edification of our lives. One of the African symbolic traditions discussed is the Adinkra symbol known as “Siamese Crocodiles.” This African symbol of unity teaches us to be ferocious fighters to feed the common stomach, but not to fight against each other because we are joined together. This session also discusses two Hebrew words for unity (yachad and echad), and how they relate to our spiritual development.
