STAGE TUBE: Jeff Marx Sings 'WHITE KWANZAA'

Jeff Marx, the Tony and Grammy winning co-creator of Avenue Q recently debuted a new Kwanzaa song titled, 'White Kwanzaa' on CNN's D.L. Hughley Breaks The News. Jeff and his team sent us at BWW TV the video so we could share it with you too!

Kwanzaa is a 7-day holiday with 7 principles, the Kinara holds 7 symbolic candles. A central black candle is flanked by three red candles and three green candles. The black candle is lit on the first night of Kwanzaa. An additional candle is lit on each succeeding night, until all seven candles are burning. The colors of the candles are taken from a flag created by Marcus Garvey. Kwanzaa is celebrated from 12/26th to 1/1 this holiday season.
