There were hundreds or thousands of New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers in front of people watching the parade.
Democratic Socialist of America (DSA) Zohran Mamdani and zionist Jessica Tisch are wasting our taxes with all these NYPD officers chatting, on their phones in front of spectators.
The 59th Annual New York Carnival Parade (known in the past as Annual West Indian American Day Carnival Parade, Labor Day Caribbean Parade) began at 11 a.m. and ended at 5:30 p.m., a half-hour earlier than in previous years. New York City mayor, Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) Zohran Kwame Mamdani and the NYPD commissioner, zionist Jessica Tisch donot want Caribbean people to celebrate their culture?
The massive celebration ran along Eastern Parkway from Utica Avenue to Grand Army Plaza in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. There were floats playing high-energy soca, reggae, and dancehall alongside thousands of participants in feather-covered masquerade costumes. Food vendors sold Caribbean-style food options—including jerk chicken, curry, and traditional Caribbean patties—lining the parade route.
The honorary Grand Marshalls were Reggae icon Buju Banton and soca star Kes Dieffenthaller.
Cecille Ford, from the West Indian American Day Carnival Association said, “This year’s theme is MAS – music, action, soul, which represents our culture and all that we bring from the Caribbean here as immigrants.”
“This is so representative of the culture and the immigrants. This is the one day we get to showcase it all,” she added. More information on wiadcacarnival.org.

THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IMPERIALISM IN LATIN AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN.
“US Intervention in Latin America and the Caribbean in the 21st Century
It is necessary for us to compile this information so that persons can see the patterns of deliberate actions taken by the US to destabilize countries in the region. It is important to remember that lives are lost, and more are at risk, due to this dangerous game that the empire is playing against our peoples.”_Jamaica LANDS
Yankee imperialism in Mexico, Guatemala, Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica, Chile, Grenada, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Venezuela, Guyana, Bolivia, Paraguay, etc.
Some of the US invasions, interventions, coups in Latin America and in the Caribbean.
– Democrat U.S. president James Knox Polk (Democratic Party) invaded Mexico in 1846, as a result, the United States of America stole more than half of Mexico’s territory.
James Knox Polk was a white supremacist, slave owner, expansionist (imperialist) Democrat who strongly supported Manifest Destiny and wanted to steal Texas, California and other western territories.
The U.S. claimed the Rio Grande as the southern border of Texas after its 1845 annexation to the United States of America, while Mexico insisted the border was further north at the Nueces River.
Polk sent U.S. troops under General Zachary Taylor into Mexico’s territory. A skirmish on April 25, 1846 (the Thornton Affair) led to casualties. Polk claimed Mexico had “shed American blood upon American soil,” the he asked U.S. Congress to declare “war” against Mexico on May 13, 1846.
The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, on February 2, 1848, officially ended the U.S. invasion against Mexico. Yankee soldiers were in Mexico until at least June 1848.
The U.S. stole from Mexico modern-day California, Nevada, Utah, most of Arizona and New Mexico, and parts of Colorado, Wyoming, Kansas, and Oklahoma.
– The government of the republican President, William Howard Taft (Republican Party), organized the coup d’état against the president of Mexico, Francisco I. Madero, in February 1913.
The U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, Henry Lane Wilson, was deeply involved in the coup against Mexican President Francisco I. Madero during “Ten Tragic Days” (Decena Trágica) in February 1913.
Henry Lane Wilson actively conspired with rebel generals Victoriano Huerta and Félix Díaz, even hosting them at the U.S. Embassy to sign the Pact of the Embassy, which finalized Madero’s ouster.
– Democrat U.S. president Thomas Woodrow Wilson (Democratic Party) invaded Mexico in 1914.
U.S. President Woodrow Wilson ordered the military occupation of the Mexican port city of Veracruz on April 21, 1914.
U.S. forces occupied Veracruz for a little over six months before withdrawing in November 1914 after Mexican Victoriano Huerta resigned.
– Democrat U.S. president Thomas Woodrow Wilson (Democratic Party) invaded Haiti in 1915.
– Democrat U.S. president Thomas Woodrow Wilson (Democratic Party) invaded the Dominican Republic in 1916.
– Democrat U.S. president Thomas Wilson (Democratic Party) invaded Mexico for the second time in 1916.
– Democrat U.S. president Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Democratic Party) started bombing Vieques, Puerto Rico, in 1941.
– Democrat U.S. president John F. Kennedy (Democratic Party) authorized the US invasion of Cuba in 1961, but it failed.
– Democrat U.S. president John F. Kennedy (Democratic Party) started the blockade on Cuba in 1962.
– Democrat U.S. president Lyndon Baines Johnson (Democratic Party) invaded the Dominican Republic in 1965.
– Republican U.S. President Richard Nixon supported the military coup in Chile in 1973.
Republican U.S. President Richard Nixon and his administration, particularly National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger strongly supported the military coup in Chile that overthrew President Salvador Allende on September 11, 1973.
Economic Sabotage: President Nixon ordered the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to “make the economy scream” in Chile to destabilize Allende’s socialist government after he was elected in 1970.
Covert Operations: The U.S. provided substantial financial, propaganda, and intelligence backing to opposition groups and military figures in Chile over the preceding years to create conditions favorable to a takeover.
Post-Coup Reaction: While declassified documents indicate direct, active U.S. military participation in the specific September 11, 1973 coup operations was limited, Nixon and Kissinger had prior knowledge of military plotting, welcomed Allende’s removal, and swiftly offered economic and diplomatic support to General Augusto Pinochet’s military regime.
– Republican U.S. president Gerald Rudolph Ford Jr. (Republican Party) backed the violence in Jamaica from 1975 to 1980.
– Republican U.S. president Ronald Reagan (Republican Party) invaded Grenada in 1983.
– Republican U.S. President George H. W. Bush (Republican Party) invaded Panama in 1989.
The RESISTANCES in the Caribbean and Latin America expelled yankees from their countries. Long live the RESISTANCES!
