Dominican Pride - GOR-68350-09

Diablos Cjuelo - or lame devils - in their long-horned masks and colorful, ruffle-sleeved costumes unique to the Dominican Republic, cracked bullwhips to thrill the crowds. The Dominican Day Parade in New York City started in 1982 as a small celebration with concerts and cultural events in Washington Heights section of Manhattan. Organized by Dominican American community leaders, the parade which is held annually each August on Sixth Avenue, has grown to become a showcase of national pride with thousands of participants and spectators.
