The colors of Kwanzaa are black, red and green; black for the people, red for their struggle, and green for the future and hope that comes from their struggle. Therefore there is one black candle, three red and three green candles. These are the mishumaa saba (the seven candles) and they represent the seven principles.

The black candle represents the first principle Umoja (unity) and is placed in the center of the kinara.

The red candles represent the principles of Kujichagulia (self-determination), Ujamaa (cooperative economics) and Kuumba (creativity) and are placed to the left of the black candle.

The green candles represent the principles of Ujima (collective work and responsibility), Nia (purpose) and Imani (faith) and are placed to the right of the black candle.

The black candle is lit first on the first day of the celebration. And the remaining candles are lit afterwards from left to right (not alternating) on the following days. This procedure is to indicate that the people come first, then the struggle and then the hope that comes from the struggle. Each day the candles are re-lit in order. Each day, emphasis should be put on the meaning of the principle and how you have and plan to exhibit that principle throughout the year.

Christmas is celebrated as a national holiday in countries with a Christian majority. The only exception to that rule is Japan, which celebrates the non-religious aspects of Christmas as a very public (but not national) holiday.

Hanukkah is celebrated as a national holiday only in Israel, and by Jews in all countries where they live.

Kwanzaa is a African American holiday, mainly celebrated in the US and Canada.

Ramadan is the Muslim month of fasting and atonement, observed by Muslims in all countries.

What the other person put was for Hanakkah. But, I don't know how Kwanzaa is celebrated. I know it lasts for 7 days and the first one was celebrated from December 26, 1966, to January 1, 1967. The candle holder used is called a kinara.

Kwanzaa can be celebrated anywhere, but African-Americans celebrate Kwanzaa. Not all Africa-Americans, it is usually celebrated by people that speak African and people that have lived in Africa. It can be celebrated anywhere because if Africans come from Africa to the United States they will still celebrate Kwanzaa.

Kwanzaa originated in the United States. Ron Karenga created Kwanzaa in 1966 as the first specifically African-American holiday. Karenga said his goal was to "...give Blacks an alternative to the existing holiday." (Christmas) === ===

The first Kwanzaa Parade or Gwaride took place on December 26, 1977 in Los Angeles, California. It consisted of two motor driven vehicles. A Red double decker "London" Bus owned by former football Great Willie Davis who owned KACE Radio 103.1 FM in Los Angeles. The Bus was their signature vehicle. "Dee Dee" Davis the father of Willie Davis was the operator. The Second vehicle was a black 1977 Porsche with Red and Green stripes owned by Dr. Anyim Palmer, founder of Marcus Garvey School. Aminifu and RW Akile decorated the two vehicles on 43rd Pl at Leimert Park. They waited until 1:00 PM then they left winding through the city shouting Happy Kwanzaa. Akile was the coordinator and organizer of the event.

There is really little tradition for Kwanzaa. Kwanzaa was started in the United States in 1966 and has not had time to develop lengthy traditions.

Umoja (unity), Kujichagulia(self-determination), Ujima (collective work and responsibility), Ujamaa(collective economics), Nia (purpose), Kuumba (creativity), and Imani (faith) are the seven principles of Kwanzaa. They are symbolized in the seven candles of the special Kwanzaa candle holder called the kinara. One candle is lit the first night of Kwanzaa, on December 26. Each succeeding night through January 1, a different candle is lit, followed by the lighting of all the candles lit on the immediately preceding nights.
