Definición

  • Kawaida is a communitarian African philosophy developed by Maulana Karenga, an activist-scholar and chair of the organization Us, one of the major black power organizations in the 1960s. The philosophy evolved in the context of the black freedom movement, especially the black power period, thus it engages the movement's central themes of freedom, justice, struggle, self-determination, unity, community, black power and presence in the world, and especially the role and relevance of culture in the life and struggle of African people.
