Harlem’s 54th Annual African American Day Parade was an unforgettable event full of joy, unity, and a profound appreciation for our rich heritage.
It’s incredibly impressive to see group after group marching with their signs, identifying all the different organizations that Black New Yorkers have formed to support each other across every facet of city life. Journalists, nurses, civil servants, politicians, artists, performers, and everyone else were out representing Black excellence and civic pride.
The parade took place from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. under the theme “Celebrating African American Culture,” and stretched along Adam Clayton Powell Blvd. from 111th to 137th Streets.
The 2023 grand marshals were Hazel Dukes, President of the NAACP New York State Conference; radio host Bevy Smith; Ashley Keiko of Keiko Studios Music Academy; Joy Bivins, the guiding force behind the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture; and Joaquin Dean, founder, and CEO of Ruff Ryders Entertainment.
The African American Day Parade has become a beloved tradition every year on the third Sunday of September. Make sure you don’t miss it in 2024!
