Arutisuse ( pronounced Ah-rut-tee-SUE-see) is a holiday that celebrates the Foundational Black American culture of freedom fighting and resistance.

Arutisuse means Arise In the traditional Foundational Black American TUT language

Arutisuse or Arise Day will be celebrated every year on December 24th. On this day, Foundational Black Americans should gift another person a book that will lift the consciousness of that person. This will pay homage to the Foundational Black American ancestors who risked their lives learning how to read and teaching others how to read.

Understanding this history will help us step into each new year with a sense of empowerment and we will make that empowerment part of our tradition and culture.

Just copped an Aritisuse hoodie too :wow:

C'mon first of all never heard of it

secondly why not call it Arise day? The made up word sounds goofy as hell

Finally like Kwanzaa they knew it would've catch on so they glommed it on another holiday that nikkas is already off for so they could either be celebrating Winter solstice Chrismas, Festivus or Kwanzaa/ Arise day or all of them.

How wonderful it is to taught by a free teacher, a spiritual teacher, a member of our family who truly loves the family, an architect of tranforming processes, a defender of African people, a beacon, a Son of Africa, a divine spirit manisfesting our creative genius. Thousands of thousands of people know Dr. Na'im Akbar as a special treasure. This book is another important gift from him to us. It is our responsibility to study these thoughts, carfully. To follow these teachings is to guarantee our liberation and to guide us toward our destiny.—From foreword by Asa G. Hilliard, III, Calloway Professor of Education at Georgia State University, Atlanta.
