Kuumba! This is the sixth Kwanzaa principle, meaning Creativity and Community Celebration. As the year is coming to an end, it's not so easy to celebrate without reflecting on all the things I have been through. I had some really good news and some bad news. My Mother lost her battle to cancer on November 17, 2010.
I could never get over it, but to be creative about the pain her death is affecting me; I have decided to focus on the good times we shared, her jokes, her sense of style and many others. She will definitely be missed so why not celebrate her life and create something that will remind me of her and the good times for now and the coming year! Happy New Year to all! http://www.africanclothes22.com/

Celebrating Thanksgiving, African & American Style
This year Thanksgiving will be different. My Mother passed away last week and it's hard to be merry and cry at the same time. People have suggested to celebrate her instead of mourning her. So I will remember the positive traits and life with her. She had a great sense of humor! Clothing was huge for her because she used to sew and sold African Clothing and Fabrics. I did not know I will be in the same business too in the United States. My background is in banking and as a former Branch Manager, I did not expect to be in African Clothing business too. It's a great transformation that I have never expected, neither do I regret it, at least I am running my own race and I embrace the rewards and challenges. This is how I grow, and as African & American, it's nice to have options, love where you are in life and give back, especially to strangers you will never see again. Touch one life and make a difference in someone else's life. This is my Thanksgiving. http://www.africanclothes22.com/

African Funeral Traditions, culture and values.
My Mother passed away last Wednesday to Cancer in Ghana. There are certain rites to be performed culturally for her home coming. As her only daughter, there are certain rites within our culture that; only I can do for her before her burial. I pray for strength and God to guide me and give me wisdom to go through it all. Colors for funerals in Kumasi are typically red, black and brown. I cannot wear any other colors besides these, without suffering any major consequences from family and friends. Colors are very serious in our African Funeral Traditions. May She rest in Peace.

African Clothes for Cancer Patients
I received some horrible news that my mother has cancer. It's shocking because she's always strong independent woman. Due to African Clothes, she can still look stylish and fabulous; because most of the African Clothes come with head ties. They are easy to tie and match the outfits. You do not have to wear a wig if you do not want, you have options with African Clothes.

Males Place Trip to Ghana in December 2010
What a great idea! Males Place is planning a trip with 15 young men and adults to Ghana, West Africa in December 2010. The teenagers have been growing their own vegetables such as corn, squash and greens, etc. on Beatties Ford Road, right here in Charlotte. Going green by teaching these young men to garden and eat their own crops, is not only healthy but it has also bonded them as brothers who care about our planet.
