Ujima Pencil Case

We may call them pencil cases, but these lined zippered pouches can be used for your make-up, your craft supplies, or even as a clutch for a night out!

Inspired by the drum, the overflowing cup, and connected heads. Ujima represented as the overflowing abundance achieved when we solve our problems together.  

Ujima became the basis for Maulana Kerenga's 3rd principle of Kwanzaa, collective work & responsibility. He wrote: "To build and maintain our community together and make our brother's and sister's problems our problems and to solve them together," These are diaspora designs lovingly made by your Iya C Springer for everyone.
