In June 2005, the House of Representatives unanimously adopted H. Con. Res. 71, sponsored by Congresswoman Barbara Lee, recognizing the significance of Caribbean people and their descendants in the history and culture of the United States. On February 14, 2006, the resolution similarly passed the Senate, culminating a two-year, bipartisan and bicameral effort. The Proclamation was issued by President George Bush on June 6, 2006. 2017 marks the ninth anniversary of June as National Caribbean American Heritage Month.
Each Thursday in June join us in downtown Hollywood at the Hollywood Arts Park as we celebrate everything Caribbean.
