At the beginning of May each year, New York wakes from its winter hibernation. This is the time when the various nationalities hold activities, and ethnic sentimentality blossoms. Parades are one excellent way in which people can affirm their cultural identity and create group unity.
每年五月開始，紐約市從寒冷中甦醒，氣候溫和怡人，正是各民族藉此大好時光舉行活動、聯絡感情的季節，遊行成了宣揚民情、團結民心的好方法。
