Third Day of Kwanzaa

27

Dec

The Third Day of Kwanzaa, on December 27th, celebrates "Ujima," which means working together and helping each other in a community. It's a day when families and friends come together to solve problems and support one another. People talk about ways to make their neighborhood, school, or family better by being responsible and working as a team. It's like when you and your friends work together on a school project. Ujima teaches us that we are stronger and can achieve more when we help and support each other.
