My Experience
On my block, it looked about 80% Colombian, and 5% each Venezuelan, Ecuadorian, and Poblano (from the state of Puebla, Mexico).
95% of people had American flags, although half also had their national flag.
All the chants were in Spanish.
Even the police telling us to stay on the curb were speaking Spanish.
I was standing right behind a guy (much shorter than me) who was interviewed for tonight's evening news (in Bogotá).
I'm guessing there were 2000 people per block (between 76th and 77th Sts.)
It lasted 2 hours, starting at 12:16pm.
"Si, Se Puede!"
All the supermarkets and bodegas closed for a few hours.
