What the parade was about:
The parade was about blacks and whites. At
that time blacks were slaves. The kindergartens did a parade to
celebrate how the blacks felt. The parade went from 8:00 to 2:00 in the
morning.
Back then the blacks called themselves Bahamans. They had lots
of music, which they danced to. In Canada people call the "Junk
Anew" Boxing Day.
This holiday is in the English tradition. It happens
every year after Christmas. The main island is Nassau which has the
biggest JUNK
ANEW
PARADE.
