"Habari Gani? I send peace, blessings, love and light to everyone who begins celebrating Kwanzaa today. Over the next week, we uplift African American culture and heritage, rooted in the seven principles of unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith. These values are not confined to the week – we should emulate them all year.
"During Kwanzaa, we learn not only from the seven principles, but from the example of our ancestors, whose legacy we carry forth. With the strength that emanates from our many blessings, and the model of those who have come before, we know that like them, we will come through challenges and obstacles, and make a better world for all who come after.
"In the spirit of Umoja, united in spirit, let us pursue justice with purpose, perseverance, and resolve."
