Rusty Areias Director of Parks and Recreation opens the event and introduces Governor Gray Davis. Davis: "We are the envy of the world and the home of the most diverse population on the planet Earth. We are living proof that America is a land of immigrants, we are living proof that nothing prospers like the immigrant ethic in California, and I am proud to be governor of all the people of this state, wherever they hail from, wherever their ancestry, we're all Californians, we're all Americans, and today is our birthday." Featured: First Peoples, European exploration, gold rush, Chinese music, early cameras, artillery.
