KWANZA - what a nice holiday..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Karenga <snip> A May 14, 1971, article in the Los Angeles Times described the testimony of one of them: "Deborah Jones, who once was given the Swahili title of an African queen, said she and Gail Davis were whipped with an electrical cord and beaten with a karate baton after being ordered to remove their clothes. She testified that a hot soldering iron was placed in Miss Davis' mouth and placed against Miss Davis' face and that one of her own big toes was tightened in a vise. Karenga, head of US, also put detergent and running hoses in their mouths, she said." http://www.dartreview.com/archives/2001/01/15/the_story_of_kwaanza.php http://www.newsmax.com/articles/?a=2000/1/1/51109
