Over three million people are expected to converge on Brooklyn\u2019s sprawling Eastern Parkway in New York on Monday, for the largest carnival parade in North America under the ubiquitous eyes of the New York Police Department (NYPD).<\/p>

\"\"<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In their attempt to avert any killing or violence that marred the spectacular parade in previous years, police are expected to keep a most watchful eye on masqueraders, revellers and parade-goers, as they jam the three and a half mile-long parade route.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

However, the organizers, the Brooklyn-based West Indian American Day Carnival Association (WIADCA), said the extraordinary police presence and restrictions, will not prevent people from getting down in the spectacle, capping five days of the annual festivities that began last Thursday.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The artistry and musical talent, along with a cornucopia of colours and a potpourri of delicacies, will augment the gaiety, as masqueraders and revellers are expected to gyrate to hypnotic soca, reggae and zouk music blaring from humongous speakers or disc jockeys mounted atop huge flatbed trucks.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Two weeks ago, with the spectacular display of some of the costume productions for this year\u2019s Labour Day Parade, WIADCA launched its 2018 New York Caribbean Carnival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt gives me great pleasure of doing this for so many years,\u201d said WIADCA Trinidadian-born chairperson Angela Sealy, after observing a moment\u2019s silence in honour of the former WIADCA president, William \u201cBill\u201d Howard.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs you know, our president has passed away, but we have to give our new president [Jamaican Dr. Ionie Pierce] the support,\u201d Sealy told patrons at the launching ceremony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In her maiden address, Pierce noted the theme of this year\u2019s carnival, \u201cKeeping Culture Alive \u2013 Next Generation, Same Great Institution.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to continue for years to come,\u201d she said tersely. \u201cContinue to support us, so we can continue this great institution.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Lawyer Sanford A. Rubenstein, one of this year\u2019s grand marshals, told the Caribbean Media Corporation (CMC), before the proceedings began, that he has been \u201ca friend of the Caribbean community for decades.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an honour to be grand marshal, to stand with the Caribbean Community in an event that brings pride and joy, especially in these difficult times,\u201d said Rubenstein, who has represented \u201cvictims\u201d in\u00a0 the Caribbean Community in New York over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One such victim was Haitian Abner Louima, who was sodomized by cops, with a broken broomstick, rupturing his internal organs, in the 70th Police Precinct in Brooklyn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NYPD said the J\u2019Ouvert parade formation area will be located on Flatbush Avenue, from Grand Army Plaza to Empire Boulevard and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio noted that \u201cJ\u2019Ouvert is one of the most vibrant cultural celebrations in our city, and we\u2019re working with the community to make the festivities are enjoyable for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn the safest big city in America, no one should have to choose between ensuring their safety and celebrating their heritage,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NYPD said security for the 2018 J\u2019Ouvert parade will follow closely to last year\u2019s plan, \u201censuring the safest possible environment for attendees and participants to enjoy the event.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NYPD said the department will also deploy additional high-resolution security cameras to monitor for any unsafe activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Caribbean J\u2019ouvert was marred by gun violence in 2015, when the Jamaican former legal aide to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, Carey Gabay, 43, was shot in the head in a crossfire, while walking home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police said gunfire had erupted between two rival gangs outside the Ebbets Field Houses in Crown Heights during the Caribbean J\u2019ouvert celebration on Labour Day.<\/p>\n
