meshiksa hasidic roots: West Indian Parade at the 770

The interaction between two cultures in Crown Heights:
The traditional Hasidism
And the colored Caribbean-ism
The square of the 770 was a good point of view.

Thanks Hashem, i have the best double view,

A few people, a majority of Lubavitch were standing up looking at the Parade between their study and prayers.

I met a very kind lady, from Jamaica.
She asked me if i have been in her country.
She thought that i was a Lubavitch. :-)
She said that she has been visited Israel and, that she loved the country.

I felt that she wanted to visit the shul.
I have been her guide.
770 is not my shul, but it's my shul!
Hard to follow me?
770 is my haven of peace.

She liked it, and i invited her to come back, if she wants to pray, to sit, and to relax…
She can borrow a book to pray.
She knew about the next Jewish Holy Days.
