What is KWANZAA?

KWANZAA is a unique African Diasporic celebration with a focus on the traditional African values of family, community responsibility, commerce, and self-improvement. KWANZAA is neither political, nor religious, and despite some misconceptions, is not a substitute for Christmas. It is simply a time of reaffirming people of the African Diaspora, their ancestors and culture. Kwanzaa, which means "first fruits of the harvest" in the African language Kiswahili, has gained tremendous acceptance. Kwanzaa was founded in 1966 by Dr. Maulana Karenga.

Kwanzaa consists of seven Kwanzaa Principles (Nguzo Saba) and should be put into practice every day, and not just celebrated for 7 days and then forgotten about:


The Nguzo Saba (The Seven Principles)

Day 1 (December 26th)
Umoja (oo-MO-jah): Unity


Day 2 (December 27th)
Kujichagulia (koo-GEE-chah-GOO-lee-AH): Self-Determination


Day 3 (December 28th)
Ujima (oo-JEE-mah): Collective Work and Responsibility


Day 4 (December 29th)
Ujamaa (oo-JAH-mah-AH): Cooperative Economics


Day 5 (December 30th)

Day 6 (December 31st)

Frustrated Subscribers Target AT&T
 
 
 
 
Flickr / Adam Pieniazek
Posted on Dec 14, 2009
 
 
 

Thanks to the runaway success of the iPhone, AT&T has the largest wireless network in the country—and the lousiest. Fed-up subscribers, who pay the telco about $30 a month just for data (and another $40 or so for voice), are planning an assault this Friday called Operation Chokehold.
 
The idea is to cripple AT&T’s network in order to draw attention to its weakness. To do so, participating iPhone users will run data-heavy applications over AT&T’s 3G network on Friday from noon to 1 p.m. Pacific time.
 
The plan was apparently launched by the Secret Diary of Steve Jobs, a popular blog that satirically impersonates the Apple CEO, but Operation Chokehold has since gained steam with notices popping up on other tech blogs.
 
It shouldn’t take much to buckle AT&T’s network—it has trouble functioning under normal conditions. Whether the company will do anything in response is another matter. Verizon has blanketed the country in ads mocking its chief rival’s network—ads that wouldn’t be so effective if they didn’t ring true. AT&T tried to sue, but gave up in the end.
 
The company promised to improve its network in New York and San Francisco—two known problem areas—but don’t hold out hope. AT&T appears as if it is looking for ways to discourage users from using its product—the network—or at least charging them more, according to wireless chief Ralph de la Vega.  —PZS

The biggest news this week was two separate film productions I have been on going work on. I wanted to share a story and a bunch of pics on the location set of an Indy film called Single Hills. Check it out:

Hey Black Family,

I want to start this email out with 2 items at the top of the agenda which are time sensitive and happening this week(end) ONLY! Then there are other things I'll share afterward further below.


FIRST priority, activist/motivation speaker/ author Kevin Powell with be holding his 9th Annual Holiday Party and Clothing Drive this Friday, December 11th, 2009. After I attend BMX this Friday evening, I will be stopping by the party drive to drop off some clothes.All clothing will be donated to Safe Horizon Streetwork Project to help homeless young people in New York City. Click the link to find out the venue and time.

SECOND priority, This Saturday will be the LAST PERFORMANCE OF No Place To Call Home which is a poignant piece about 5 Black kids living in a group home in NYC. The venue is at the Paul Robeson Theatre (ironically I never heard of them before this showcase! I know, shame on me, right). I went in the nasty rain and sleet last Saturday performance and really liked it. PLEASE SHOW YOUR SUPPORT IF YOU CAN. I reallythink it is worth the $20.00 - Tickets are available at the theater only! You can arrive between a half-hour and hour to purcahse your tickets. The Paul Robeson Theatre is in Fort Greene, Brooklyn (downtown). Click the link for more info.

2 years ago I went to an SGL and their allies showcase event called Triple "S" (Safe Sex Shoot) Rated Fashion-Concert Show [11-7-2007] and got to shoot some pics of some great underground artists. Likwuid Stylez (of the duo Rebel Starr) was one of the artists. She did an recent interview and talked about the hip-hop industry and the misogyny among peers and a multitude of other stuff. Just sharing:

Thought the group might find this interesting....

Lambda Rising Bookstore is pleased to announce a special appearance of Author
and Porn Star, Aiden Shaw, Thursday December 3rd at 7:30pm.  Aiden will be here
to answer questions, sign books, and take pictures with adoring fans.

Time: Thursday, December 3, 2009 7:30 p.m.
Location: Lambda Rising Bookstore
                1625 Connecticut Ave, NW
                Washington, DC 20009
Phone: 202-462-6969
About the Book:
Sordid Truths chronicles Aiden Shaw's asent from being just another broke and
very horny college boy, who dabbled with the idea that he chould sell his young
body for hard cash, to becoming the internationally renowned adult film idol.

After finishing just one year of his BA degree Shaw was twenty-one and easily
lured away from study by the lusty mix of sex and money in London. Within a
short time on the scene, he gained infamy and was something of a celebrity
wihtin his field. Peddling his flesh took him to the steamy underbelly of the
U.K.'s decadent capital city in the late 80's. Here he rubbed shoulders and
other body parts with wealthy, weird, and wonderful eccentrics, famous- and
famously closteded-Euro trash personalities and the celebrated elite.

However, working as a prostitute turned minor league once gay porn sensation Chi
Chi La Rue took polariods of Shaw naked and aroused and launched his career. His
rise to stardom has been documented by the adult industry's leading studios in
more than fifty films that have won him numerous awards and even more notoriety
as the complex and multi-talented character that he's become known by many.

About the Author:

Aiden Shaw is the author of the bestselling memoir My Undoing: Love in the Thick
of Sex, Drugs, Pornogrpahy, and Prostitution, which follows chronologically the
events of Sordid Truths. Shaw is also the author of three novels, Brutal,
Wasted, and Boundaries, as well as a volume of poetry, If Language at the Same
Time Shapes and Distorts Our Ideas and Emotions, How Do We Communicate Love?

These non-ticketed events are free and open to the public. Please contact Linsey
Pecikonis at 202-462-6969 for any more information or links to the Author Page,
advertisements, images, or Facebook Event information.  For more upcoming
events, please visit Lambda Rising's website.

Do you have anything special planned for the annual celebration of the arrival of white folks to the shores of North America?
 
 
Something dignified and befitting the occasion, I hope.
