Glitter, jerk chicken and dancehall music took over Brooklyn on
Monday – Labor Day - during the West Indian American Day Carnival,
better known as the West Indian Day Parade. People flocked from all
over the world to view the elaborate costumes, eat authentic Caribbean
food, and celebrate West Indian heritage. Eastern Parkway, a street in
New York City’s Crown Heights Brooklyn neighborhood, was packed with
dancers, fancy floats and of course, the police – a plethora of police
officers to be exact, who in the past have had a strong presence at the
parade because of high reports of violent activity. SaharaTV captured
footage of the event. Stayed tuned for the clip coming up soon. In the
meantime check out these vibrant photos!
