Vice President-elect Kamala Harris would like to wish you a happy Kwanzaa, and she did so with a video in which she recounted her childhood memories of celebrating the holiday, which was invented a year before she was born. We don’t mean to get into conspiracy theory territory here, but this is the same person who shared her fond memories of getting high and listening to Tupac and Snoop Dogg in college, years before either released their debut album. “Oh, yeah, definitely Snoop. Tupac for sure,” she recalled.
So something just seems off about Harris and her lifelong celebration of Kwanzaa.
Our Kwanzaa celebrations are one of my favorite childhood memories. The whole family would gather around across multiple generations and we’d tell stories and light the candles.
Whether you’re celebrating this year with those you live with or over Zoom, happy Kwanzaa! pic.twitter.com/21bzGHZpYe

I call BS – Prove it, show us pictures of your family celebrating!

The funniest response I have seen so far reacting to obvious Kamala lie is:
"Of all the things that never happened, this never happened the most."

I’m sure you had your favorite Tupac albums on during the story time too

You must have a ton of old photos of you as a child celebrating Kwanzaa with your family. Could you post a few?

Grandma and great-grandpa celebrated Kwanzaa for many generations before it was invented in 1966 and you were two. #HowDoYouDoFellowKwanzans

Why would a Tamil family celebrate Kwanzaa in Canada? This seems to be much more likely to be a case of you listening to Tupac in College than grounded in reality

Harris has a diverse ethnic and cultural background, but its just odd to me she and the Democrats have very obviously prioritized one over the other for clear politics and media.

As some one who was born & raised in Africa I can tell there is no such thing as Kwanza.
Kamala knows nothing about it because she is an Indian Jamaican who grew up in Canada.— Melissa Tate (@TheRightMelissa) December 26, 2020
Should be easy to post a family picture of multiple generations lighting candles and telling stories

Good point:
In all fairness, her dad got a PhD from Berkeley, so her family was probably one of the founders of the entire imaginary holiday.
