I am an African American with many ties in the Pakistani community. I was privileged to have been invited to the Pakistan Independence Day celebration in Los Angeles. I was entranced by the excitement, food and celebrations. It was a remarkable event filled with entertainment, information and camaraderie.
I congratulate the organizers on an event that showed both the beauty and diversity of the Pakistani culture. It was an experience I will cherish for life.

In his criticism of the Independence Day celebration, Mr. Ashraf Ali does not say what precisely was bad about the function. In my opinion, all the presentations were good and well organized. The participants and volunteers were young and educated. I don’t see anything wrong in this. Indisputably, it was the best Independence Day function organized in Los Angeles in the last 35 years.
