Opinion: Puerto Rican Day Procession and Misplaced Nostalgia
Is the Puerto Rican time procession a relic which has had outlived their reason?
When you look at the hallway of the house there is an image of my moms and dads when they were still married to each other. My mommy is actually wearing a sundress and my father a suit, connect and a bright red sash using keyword “mariscal” written about it. We remain between them, age four, in a sailor dress, holding a Puerto Rican flag. From the that day as hot. My father, just who conducted a situation when it comes to City of nyc under gran Ed Koch, urged me personally across the procession route telling us to “smile and wave.” Really don’t understand that Puerto Rican time procession to be really fun. It really sensed long.
The second Puerto Rican time procession I’m able to keep in mind, I found myself 15-years-old and accompanied my personal half Rican, half Ecuadorian sweetheart with his group.
