ShayWithThaHobbies | #Kwanzaathon | Day 2: Kujichagulia | A Year In Review | A Chatty Reflection On Failure @ShayWithThaHobbies | Uploaded December 2022 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
Heyyy Yall!
Here's the thing, I've decided to be soft with myself as I leave 2022 behind and enter 2023. I set so many goals for this year and did not hit a single one. But I did accomplish so much more than i originally expected, in areas I hadn't even considered. So sit down and chat with me about NOT hitting my goals!
This year's group read is Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis.
Any and everyone is encouraged to participate but remember this week is to highlight, uplift, reflect, and create with all things Black at the forefront. #Kwanzaathon came from the idea that a lot of holidays are celebrated in American culture in December, but one we wish had more representation, especially in the writing community on YouTube is Kwanzaa.
For more information about Kwanzaa:

Kwanzaa is an African-American celebration geared on highlighting, strengthening, educating, and uniting the Black community. It is based on the Seven Principles of Kwanzaa called, "Nguzo Saba ".
