NYC Council Caribbean Heritage Celebration

On Tuesday, June 30, 2015, I joined the New York City Council, under the leadership of Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito, with Council Member Williams, Council Member Mathieu Eugene and the Black, Latino & Asian Caucus, for a celebration of Caribbean Heritage at the Council Chambers of City Hall. The night was filled with Caribbean food (Diri Djon Djon was served), cultural entertainment by the Sesame Flyers, and the honoring of community leaders, including Hon. Sylvia Ash, Dr. Una Clarke, Neva Shillingford King, Raymond Luke, and Yvonne Stennet.
