New Yorkers get this, like it or not:
It's their day here today (and note it is very much differentiated from Puerto Rican Day)
though there is pride in general Caribbean culture as well - i.e. Puerto Ricans and Jamaicans etc. are seen like "brothers," with the exception the one thing you sense is that none of them want to have anything to do with the Haiti or Haitian national history, they are not proud of it, they don't want anything to do with Haiti, not at all proud that it was a country formed by slaves. Even Cubans are "brothers" whether pro-Castro or not, but not Haitians. It's like Haitians are foreigners....and again, even very dark-skinned Jamaicans are not see this way.
