In 2000, ICS began leading the celebration of June as
Caribbean American Heritage Month in Washington DC, building on
efforts started by a now defunct Ad-Hoc Group of Washington DC
residents to have a Caribbean Heritage Month in Washington DC in 1999.
The official Campaign for a National Caribbean American Heritage Month
began in 2004, when the Bill was tabled in Congress by Congresswoman
Barbara Lee. The Bill was reintroduced and passed the House in June,
2005, and the Senate in February, 2006.
During Caribbean-American Heritage Month, we celebrate the great
contributions of Caribbean Americans to the fabric of our Nation, and
we pay tribute to the common culture and bonds of friendship that
unite the United States and the Caribbean countries.

Caribbean American History Month
Celebrations

Welcome
to the fifth annual celebration of Caribbean arts and culture in
America's capital. This year we have taken a leap of faith and
expanded it to include music and dance and thus we have re-imagined
it as a Festival of the Arts and Humanities. Because
the Festival contains so many elements of our culture we call it
ALLSPICE -- all spectacular, positively, Irie, Caribbean edutainment...
or SPICE for short. This year we will produce a banquet of
activities from literature to music to art, all signifying
the crossings of Caribbean identity in America.
We
hope you can join us...
