ST. LOUIS, 13 de octubre de 2022 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- Con este nuevo y colorido diseño de estampilla, el Servicio Postal de los Estados Unidos continúa su tradición de celebrar Kwanzaa mediante la dedicatoria, el día de hoy, de una nueva estampilla Forever. La ceremonia tuvo lugar en el Center Ferrara Theater de los Estados Unidos en St. Louis.

"USPS tiene el honor de continuar la celebración de Kwanzaa, una tradición comunitaria que ha crecido hasta albergar un significado especial para millones de personas desde su creación en 1966", expresó Eddie Banner, gerente de distrito de USPS Kansas-Misuri, quien actuó como oficial de dedicatoria. "Me complace dedicar esta colorida y festiva estampilla en honor a Kwanzaa".

En el evento, Banner estuvo acompañado por la maestra de ceremonias Tracie Berry-McGhee, fundadora del SisterKeeper Empowerment Center; Jeanice L. Baker, presidenta de St. Louis Metropolitan Alumnae Chapter Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.; Cheryl McNeil, gerente de Impuestos de Activos Fijos y Uso de Ventas, Servicio al Cliente de Edward Jones Investments; Cheryl Jordan, especialista en implementación de beneficios farmacéuticos de Lumeris, y Erin Robinson, artista de la estampilla e ilustradora nominada al Emmy. 

"Kwanzaa nos recuerda ser deliberados a la hora de generar un impacto en nuestras familias, comunidades y cultura; debemos construir puentes, en lugar de barreras", anotó Baker. "Nos entusiasma y honra habernos asociado con el Servicio Postal de los Estados Unidos para revelar esta hermosa estampilla Forever".

El diseño de la estampilla ilustra a dos pequeños, una niña y un niño, parados con un kinara (candelabro) y las siete velas encendidas (mishumaa saba) delante de ellos. Están vestidos con batas similares a prendas espirituales. Un círculo azul claro detrás de las cabezas de los niños representa la plenitud y unifica las figuras, y un diseño de mosaico enmarca el fondo.

El director de arte Antonio Alcalá diseñó la estampilla con artes originales de Erin Robinson.

La estampilla Kwanzaa se vende en planchas de 20 unidades. Las noticias sobre las estampillas se están compartiendo con la etiqueta #KwanzaaStamps.

Cada año, millones de afroamericanos se reúnen con amigos y familiares durante la semana de Kwanzaa para honrar los siete principios fundacionales de la festividad panafricana: unidad (umoja), autodeterminación (kujichagulia), trabajo colectivo y responsabilidad (ujima), economía cooperativa (ujamaa), propósito (nia), creatividad (kuumba) y fe (imani).

Kwanzaa es un momento festivo de regocijo con intenciones de salud, prosperidad y buena suerte en el próximo año. También es un momento de reflexión y memoria en torno a dificultades enfrentadas en el pasado, tanto por las personas como las comunidades, así como las formas en que la historia puede nutrir e impactar la felicidad futura.

Con orígenes en festividades antiguas y modernas de la primera cosecha que ocurren en todo el continente africano, Kwanzaa incorpora y reimagina muchas tradiciones comunitarias como una celebración contemporánea y ratificación de la cultura afroamericana.
