Day 6 is on December 31. The third red candle, which represents the principle of Kuumba, or creativity, is lit on the sixth day. #Kwanzaa #Kwanzaa365
Ujimaa -Kwanzaa
The fourth principle of Kwanzaa
On Kwanzaa's fourth day, the black candle is lit first, followed by the farthest left red candle, the farthest right green candle, and finally, the next red candle put to the left of the black flame. It symbolizes Ujamaa (oo-Jah-MAH), or Collective Economics, which is the fourth principle.
Following that, the fourth principle is reviewed with the current members. The Unity cup is passed around and the candles are extinguished.
