Today people can buy Kwanzaa greeting cards and special Kwanzaa clothes. Stores sell Kwanzaa candles and candleholders. Some people don’t believe that Kwanzaa is a real holiday, because it’s so new. But other people say that customs and celebrations are always changing and that Kwanzaa shows what is important in people’s lives. Shantelle Davis says she likes Kwanzaa because it’s fun.
“But I also learn new things every year,” she says.
