As I continue to record our family's history with your help, I would greatly appreciate your candid feedback about how I did this first year (2012).  My feelings are not easily hurt, so I also welcome criticism. But if I say so myself, I think I did pretty good for the first year!  But I value your words more.  KOH

Is Jesus still the reason for the season?

Is Jesus the reason for the season? Will you celebrate too commercial Christmas and very cultural Kwanzaa? Only Christmas? Only Kwanzaa? Hanukkah? Neither, none or something else? I do not see a conflict so since 1980, I have also celebrated Kwanzaa, as well as the less commercial aspects of Christmas! Since 2010, I have also started recognizing January 1st (instead of Juneteenth) as a better time to celebrate Independence Day for African-Americans. Why? Because that was the day that Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation went into effect (January 1, 1863). How about you?

    Feel free to leave comments (even corrections) on any of these posts (old and current ones) at any time.

    If we don't record our family history, it gets lost.  Your comments are important.

    I will do periodic posts, but this blog is really an open forum for visitors to this site.

    Although this website was created by moi (Keith Orlando Hilton), I prefer that it now be ran by a committee of relatives. Interested? Especially young computer savvy young people.
