Dogon symbol
*This date is the sixth day of Kwanzaa: The day focuses on Kuumba or creativity in Swahili.
This principle of the Nguzo Saba is a vow to be creative in restoring black people to their traditional greatness by leaving our community more beautiful and beneficial. It has a large expression in the literature and culture of ancient Egypt.
The seven vibrations of divine creation is the Dogon symbol representing creativity (picture). This focus is deeply rooted both in the social and sacred teachings of African Societies.
