Brooklyn’s gearing up for its biggest Caribbean celebration yet, with J’Ouvert blazing through the streets at dawn and the West Indian American Day Parade marching into the afternoon — but this year, safety is front and center. With hundreds of thousands expected, city officials are deploying an unprecedented security operation: drones, helicopters, hundreds of volunteers, and a zero-tolerance stance on violence after last year’s shootings.

The goal? Let the music, colors, and community joy shine — without shadow.
