Celebrating the end of Ramadan in Roxbury

Iseut reports:

Was awakened this morning by the sound of prayers being sung.

She walked over to the Madison Park High School field to take photos.

Jonas Prang took photos as well, and describes the event:

There were men and boys of every stripe streaming onto the field. Of hats I saw knitted skull caps, white and black ones, Afghani pakols, keffiyehs, and turbans. I even saw one fez. There were a few men in formal black suits, medical personnel in scrubs, young men casually dressed in jeans and shirts open at the collar. Many men were wearing light, calf-length robes, some stopping to pull them from their backpacks and don them before doing down to the field. Almost every man seemed to have a plastic shopping back for his shoes and a prayer rug.

Eventually a man came to the bleachers and shooed all the able-bodied men out of the bleachers and down onto the field. ...
