Please please get commentators who know what they're talking about. Two times the commentator referenced Guyana as being a country in South Africa. FYI, South Africa is a country in Africa, and Guyana is in South America. We are a founding member of Caricom and an accepted Caribbean country because of our shared cultural heritage of being a past British colony.
I was wondering about all of the different Floats that I grew up seeing 🤔 Even though the parade doesn't seem as big as it used to be.. 11:52 I pray it's much safer outthere than it used to be in 80's & 90's 🙏🏽🙏🏽 Back then I was definitely outthere with not a care 11:25
@@joy2theworld488 interesting, I was watching from trinidad 🇹🇹, 4 live streams on the parade and I noticed there is less color on the road , no costumes and I heard alot of laws where in place. Look boring.
@@rosemariegray-olabiran7991, here we go ! 😂 😂 Oonu can fight it out. Jamaicans know that soca and calypso is secondary to us! Long live Reggae music ! 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
@@gettygets872 know how the history of west Indian carnival was started. It was started by a Trinidadians. Give credit where credit is due. I'm not interested in social media fighting. Have a blessed night.
@@rosemariegray-olabiran7991 . 😂 comprehension is a challenge for you isn’t it. Your gripe is not with me it’s with the person who wrote the original post. I don’t care who started this event in the USA, as my post said. Trinidad vs another islands starting this.., you guys can fight it out.
@@vilmaduke7799 You said you come here to work and contribute but some of y'all obviously don't if your parades are always violent. The Notting Hill Caribbean carnival in England is violent as well
Imagine bragging about your family building a house when the house is literally unkept and falling apart under your ownership. African Americans have pride for the work of their ancestors but not of their own hands. If you respected your ancestors it would be reflected in the culture. I DARE black Americans to host a parade during Juneteenth and see how that goes. You’re talking about Caribbean people abandoning their people, take a look around at Black America, y’all have abandoned yourselves. So much so that other American demographics are tired of trying to figure out what to do with “Black Americans problem”. Immigrants are out performing African Americans in public schools, universities, the workplace, blue collar industries, real estate, businesses and THE FAMILY UNIT. At this point you can continue being a victim and projecting that frustration onto every available group of people. Or you can go be great 🤷🏽♀️. There’s a lot that African Americans can learn from immigrants and there’s a lot immigrants can learn from African Americans as well.
Great job on reporting. Nice to see folks out enjoying this long weekend

Love from Trinidad 🇹🇹❤
Crowds look smaller than the parades of the 1990s. What's going on with this change.
Police are controlling where you walk a lot more now.
Alot of laws in place , less costumes.

It's not Trinidad carnival it's A Caribbean carnival, that includes all the island
It was a Trinidadian who created the west Indian day carnival in the United States. Big up Trinidad and Tobago
