                                               Vegan Kwanzaa Coconut Cake                          

Kwanzaa started over 35 years ago in the United States.  Kwanzaa is a non-political, non-denominational African-American cultural holiday which was the dream of Dr. Maulana (Ron) Karenga, a leading theorist of the Black Movement.  Kwanzaa means "first fruits of the harvest" in the East African language of Kiswahili.  Since 1966, the spirit of Kwanzaa has grown continually, and now over 5 million North Americans celebrate Kwanzaa instead of, or in addition to, Christmas.
