The reaction to his death, with people leaving candles and flowers outside Apple stores and politicians singing praises on the internet, is proof that Mr Jobs had become something much more significant than just a clever money-maker.

Each day of Kwanzaa, usually before the evening meal, family and friends gather around the table and someone lights a candle, beginning with the black.

In preparation for the celebration, a straw mat is placed on the table, along with a candle holder with seven candles, one black, three red, and three green.

The black candle represents the African-American people, the red is for their struggles, and the green represents their hopes for the future.

While the candle is being lit, a principle is recited; then each person present takes a turn to speak about the importance that principle has to himself or herself.
