A Powerful March at the African-American Day Parade
The huge African-American Day Parade in Harlem on September 18th was highlighted by TWU Local 100's float, parade of bikes from the Buffalo Soldiers MC, and our MTA NYCT Honor Guard, bringing professionalism and polish to the proceedings. TWU Local 100 Secretary-Treasurer Earl Phillips and Recording Secretary LaTonya Crisp-Sauray, along with VP's from Stations, RTO, and OA, led the rank and file in the joyous event. We were also graced by the presence of Democratic Primary Winner Marisol Alcantara, who came out to march with the TWU fresh off her victory in the 31st State Senate District We served soul food to all members as well as treating union brother and sisters from Fire, PD, EMS, and Sanitation to some great eats. Enjoy the video -- photos will be up tomorrow -- and watch for the special shout-out from Dr. Bob Lee of WBLS!
