The Skanner News - Alabama A&M Makes History as First HBCU Band to Lead Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade
56 students from Alabama A&M University’s Marching Maroon and White are set to travel more than 900 miles to kick off the 97th annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, USA Today reports. Held annually in New York City, Alabama A&M is not the first HBCU band to perform in the parade, but they are the first to lead it; the school’s Dancin’ Divas auxiliary also set for a special performance with the Radio City Music Hall Rockettes.
