Viva La Fiesta! Southwest Detroit celebrates 59 years of the Cinco de Mayo Parade

Almost every year, Southwest Detroit celebrates Cinco de Mayo with an annual parade that makes its way down W. Vernor Hwy, the main thoroughfare in Southwest Detroit. While parade-goers line up and down the parade route, banda music blares, and ballet folklorico dancers twirl traditional dresses representing Jalisco, Oaxaca, and Guerrero. 

The parade is a beloved Southwest Detroit Tradition that started 59 years ago by the Mexican Patriotic Committee.

It’s common to see grandparents, parents and children enjoying the festivities together.

Angeles Cuevas, a resident of the Springwells neighborhood, said she and her family have been attending the parade for as long as she can remember.

“It’s always been like a family tradition. About 15 of my primos and I would get together to see the Lowriders. Everybody was throwing candy, and all the kids were fighting for the candy. It was just always a vibe,” Cuevas said. ”Good food, good company. It was like the simpler times when you didn’t know they were the simpler times. I love the Cinco de Mayo parade.”

Alma Cruz is the new President of the Mexican Patriotic Committee. She’s revamping a parade that had lost its luster in recent years. There will be no on-site registration; everything must be done in advance, allowing floats, horses, cars and takuache trucks to easily join the procession.

This year’s theme is La Historia de Detroit. “We want to tie that into the parade, not only because we want to talk about all the different ethnicities that make up Southwest Detroit,” Cruz said, “but because it represents the resilience of the people and how families got here. We want to continue to celebrate that and tell that story.”

Lisa Gonzalez is the secretary of the Mexican Patriotic Committee. She says she’s been passionate about the parade since she was a little girl.

 “My parents experienced it with my tia, my tio; it’s a tradition. I’m excited to plan it and for the community to be involved,” Gonzalez said.

The Cinco de Mayo Parade started out as a small neighborhood-centered event to build community and is now one of the city’s most talked-about traditions.

Cruz wants to ensure that the parade is safe, fun, and memorable for all its spectators.

In 2014, shots were fired during the parade, causing panic. That year, the festival was immediately canceled. The somber tone of guns fired at a family event shocked the Mexican Patriotic Committee who never wanted to see that happen again. Juan Carrion, the Mexican Patriotic Committee Cinco de Mayo Parade chair, says an important part of the parade is being prepared for anything and ensuring everyone’s safety.

“We came up with an evacuation plan to put in place if something like that was to ever happen, we now know what measures to take,” Carrion said.

Another safety precaution MPC took was to deepen its relationship with the Detroit Police Department.

“At first, it wasn’t easy, they needed to understand us, and now they do. As of today, we’re like a family and have built a great relationship to keep everyone safe,” Carrion said.

A popular misconception is that Cinco de Mayo is Mexican Independence Day, which is false. Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Battle of Puebla in 1862, where Benito Juarez, Mexico’s first Indigenous president, and General Ignacio Zaragoza, led an army of men to defend the land of Puebla against France. Though outnumbered and poorly supplied, Zaragoza and his men stood their ground to defend La Patria.

Today, the celebration serves as a way for Mexican immigrants to celebrate their heritage and honor the Mexican community, which has been in Detroit for 125 years.

The Cinco de Mayo Parade is on Sunday, May 5th starting at 12 noon. This year, it will be accompanied by a two-day Cinco de Mayo Fiesta on 21st Street and Bagley St from noon until 8 pm each day. For more information, visit https://www.mpcdetroit.org/

This story was made possible by the Race and Justice Reporting Initiative, which aims to build trust between the news media and Black, Indigenous, and People of Color communities and strengthen representative democracy.

¡Que Viva La Fiesta del 5 de mayo! El suroeste de Detroit disfrutará de su desfile número 59

Casi todos los años, el suroeste de Detroit celebra el Cinco de Mayo con un desfile anual que recorre W. Vernor Hwy, su calle principal. Mientras los asistentes al desfile se alinean a lo largo de la ruta, suena la música de banda y los bailarines del ballet folclórico hacen girar sus vestidos tradicionales representando a Jalisco, Oaxaca y Guerrero.

El desfile es una hermosa tradición del suroeste de Detroit que comenzó hace 59 años por el Comité Patriótico Mexicano.

Es común ver a abuelos, padres e hijos disfrutando juntos de la fiesta.

Ángeles Cuevas, residente de la colonia Springwells, nos comentó que ella y su familia han asistido al desfile desde que tiene uso de razón.

“Siempre ha sido como una tradición familiar. Unos 15 de mis primos y yo nos reuníamos para ver a los Lowriders. Todos tiraban dulces y los niños nos peleábamos por atraparlos. Siempre hubo una buena vibra”, dijo Cuevas. “Buena comida y compañía. Fue la época más sencilla, cuando no sabías que eran los años más sencillos. Me encanta el desfile del Cinco de Mayo”.

Alma Cruz es la nueva Presidenta del Comité Patriótico Mexicano. Está renovando un desfile que había perdido su brillo en los últimos años. No habrá registro en el sitio; todo debe hacerse con antelación, permitiendo que carrozas, caballos, carros y camiones takuache se sumen fácilmente al desfile.

El tema de este año es La Historia de Detroit, que vamos a incorporarla en el desfile, no solamente para hablar de las diferentes etnias que conforman el suroeste de Detroit, sino porque representa la resiliencia de la gente y cómo llegaron esas familias hasta aquí. Queremos seguir celebrándolo y contándolo”. Compartió la Presidenta.

Lisa González es la secretaria del Comité Patriótico Mexicano. Ella comenta que le apasiona el desfile desde que era niña.

  “Mis padres lo vivieron con mi tía, mi tío; es una tradición. Estoy emocionada de planificarlo y de que la comunidad participe”, dijo González.

El Desfile del Cinco de Mayo comenzó como un pequeño evento centrado en el vecindario para construir comunidad y ahora es una de las tradiciones más comentadas de la ciudad.

Cruz quiere asegurarse de que el desfile sea seguro, divertido y memorable para todos sus espectadores.

En 2014, hubo disparos durante el desfile, provocando pánico y cancelando el festival inmediatamente; el tono sombrío de ese suceso en un evento familiar, conmocionó al Comité Patriótico Mexicano que no quería que eso volviera a suceder. Juan Carrión, presidente del Desfile del Cinco de Mayo del Comité, dijo que una parte importante del desfile es estar preparado y garantizar la seguridad de todos.

“Tenemos un plan de evacuación por si algo así sucediera alguna vez y ahora estamos conscientes de qué medidas tomar”, dijo Carrión.

Otra disposición que incorporó el MPC fue profundizar su relación con el Departamento de Policía de Detroit.

“Al principio no fue fácil, necesitaban entendernos y ahora lo hacen. Somos como una familia y hemos construido una gran relación para que todos estemos seguros”, dijo Carrión.

Una idea errónea popular, es que el Cinco de Mayo es el Día de la Independencia de México, lo cual es falso. El Cinco de Mayo conmemora la Batalla de Puebla en 1862, donde Benito Juárez, el primer presidente indígena de México, y el general Ignacio Zaragoza, lideraron un ejército para defender la tierra de Puebla contra Francia; aunque superados en número y mal abastecidos, Zaragoza y sus hombres se mantuvieron firmes para defender su patria.

Actualmente, la celebración es una forma en la que los inmigrantes mexicanos recuerdan su herencia y honran a la comunidad mexicana, que ha estado en Detroit durante 125 años.

El Desfile del Cinco de Mayo será el domingo 5 de mayo a partir de las 12 del mediodía. Se llevará a cabo una Fiesta de dos días en 21st Street y Bagley St desde el mediodía hasta las 8 pm. Para obtener más información, visite https://www.mpcdetroit.org/

Esta historia fue posible gracias a la Iniciativa de Informes sobre Raza y Justicia, cuyo objetivo es generar confianza entre los medios de comunicación y las comunidades negras, indígenas y de color y fortalecer la democracia representativa.
