To our many friends & supporters who have participated and enjoyed our Labor-Day Carnival presentation over the past 30 + years, and to the general public as a whole, we wish to thank you for your support during this period. Unfortunately we have come to the decision that we can no longer participate in the West Indian Day Carnival presentation because of the increasing cost, lack of funding, inability to host fund raising events, the inconvenient and excessive restrictions imposed by the NYPD and the inability of WIADCA (West Indian American Day Carnival Association) to properly represent the producers of this significant event, perhaps the largest of it’s kind in the USA.

This festival generates almost $300 million for the City of New York while the producers are forced to pay their own way even a fee to WIADCA to participate in the Carnival Celebration on the Parkway. While we are certain that the absence of Hawks International alone will not be felt, we have decided that this is an exercise in futility which must now come to an end. We are cognizant of our commitment to sustain the rich culture of the Caribbean and the necessity to pass the tradition on to generations of the future. Should conditions change for the better to foster an infrastructure in which we the producers can thrive we stand poise to continue our contribution. We look forward to the continued support at other Hawks International fund raising activities.

Our Motto: Dare to Forge the Future.

New York Shitty White Ruling Class PIMPING Allyuh Culture to the tune of $300 MILLION

3 MILLION ah allyuh let that Money Bags Bloomberg and others MudderfuKKKers Walk in Front allyuh Parade and Dont Demand NOTHING in Return.

At Least ask the MudderfuKKKers for $10 Subway or Bus Fare or make the Goddamn Public Transportation FREE in Brooklyn on that day.

IT'S B-O-R-O-K-E-E-T-E.....and no, BOROKEETE wins this year, hands down, unless Rango or 1199 comes up with some really really hot, off the wall designs (which i doubt IMO), then Borokeete gets it for this year....or at least they should...

that point i can agree with......that would make life soooooooooo much easier that day
