Caribbean Pride at Gracie Mansion | New York City News

Mayor Zohran Mamdani kicked off New York’s first-ever Caribbean American Heritage celebration at Gracie Mansion with Sean Paul and a West Indies Cricket World Cup jersey, honoring the community’s resilience, cultural richness, and vital contributions to the city. He drew parallels between cricket’s spirit of unity and the Caribbean diaspora’s legacy of mutual support — especially amid recent challenges like the revocation of Temporary Protected Status for Haitians. With initiatives like sanctuary policies and the Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs, City Hall vows to honor that tradition of solidarity. This vibrant event underscored how Caribbean New Yorkers — from teachers to essential workers — are woven into the city’s soul, demanding continued commitment to inclusion and justice.
