News Americas, NEW YORK, NY, Sat. June 14, 2014: The newly open Thunderbolt Roller Coaster, on the morning of Saturday June 14, 2014, served as the backdrop for about 500 supporters who came to Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Tribute to The Ancestors of The Middle Passage. After hours of drumming, poetry reading, and dancing, the large group preceded to the ocean to give offerings to the ancestors. Photo: Hayden Roger Celestin
