      [2021]., Pre-adolescent, Balzer + Bray, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers Call No: 973 .0496073   Edition: First edition.    Availability:1 of 1     At Location(s) Summary Note: The People Remember tells the journey of African descendants in America by connecting their history to the seven principles of Kwanzaa. It begins in Africa, where people were taken from their homes and families. They spoke different languages and had different customs. Yet they were bound and chained together and forced onto ships sailing into an unknown future. Ultimately, all these people had to learn one common language and create a culture that combined their memories of home with new traditions that enabled them to thrive in this new land. Sumptuously illustrated, this is an important book to read as a family--a story young readers can visit over and over again to deepen their understanding of African American history in relation to their own lives and current social justice movements. By turns powerful and revealing, this is a lyrical narrative that tells the story of survival, as well as the many moments of joy, celebration, and innovation of Black people in America"--From the publisher's web site.

      -- Kwanzaa
      c2004., Juvenile, Sterling Call No: 394.2612    Availability:1 of 1     At Location(s)Click here to view Summary Note: Gives the principle and symbol for each day of Kwanzaa, with accompanying poems, songs, activities, and recipes. Green is for the land, red is for the blood, black is for the people whom we love, Harambee, its Kwanzaa. With joyful songs; recipes for delicious dishes such as jambalaya salad, evocative art, and simple, poetic explanations of principles and symbols, this African-American holiday comes beautifully to life. With stunning stepped pages that feature a kente cloth pattern and pretty foil accents on the cover, it's an eye catching package. Day by day, the images capture the warmth and togetherness of the week long celebration, from a beaming little boy and his parents holding the traditional basket of fruit to three youngsters weaving their mkeka, or straw mat. Candles are lighted, stories told, symbolic ears of corn purchased, and handmade gifts or books given, and throughout, the happiness of people pulling together to make things better shines forth.
