Bess McCoy, St. Louis Mardi Gras organizer and spokeswoman joins Chris and Amy to tell us all about the St. Louis Mardi Gras Parade tomorrow in Soulard.

Anxieties are high at schools and churches after moves by the Trump Administration suggested these institutions could be visited by Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE). .The Gulf States Newsroom's Kat Stromquist spoke with Nora Ahmed, legal director of the ACLU of Louisiana, to explain immigrants' Constitutional rights. In a special legislative session late last year, Louisiana passed a sweeping overhaul to its tax system year that saw the state income tax slashed to a flat tax rate and increased the rates of the state sales tax.Some have said the new tax system is a very modest improvement, while others find it regressive. Neva Butkus, senior policy analyst at the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy Others, tells us why this system has problematic implications for state budget stability. As we celebrate Carnival season here in Louisiana, we're taking a moment to focus on one integral part of the scene– parade throws. They have a long history, not only through Mardi Gras in New Orleans, but going back long before New Orleans existed.The Historic New Orleans Collection will be holding talks today through Saturday that outline the colorful history of Mardi Gras parade throws. Interpreter with the Historic New Orleans Collection Kurt Owens tells us more. —Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos. Our managing producer is Alana Schrieber.

Emile Christian aus New Orleans schrieb den weltbekannten Musiktitel „Mardi Gras Parade“. Das Stück aus dem Jahr 1958 versetzt einen direkt in die Stimmung einer Mardi Gras Parade, die traditionell am Faschingsdienstag mit einem großen farbenfrohen und ausgelassenen Umzug u. a. in New Orleans gefeiert wird. Die lebensbejahende Stimmung und Freude auf diesen Paraden spürt man förmlich beim Hören von diesem Song. Für Joe Wulff (Jazzposaunist, Sänger & Bandleader) ist dieser Titel von Emile Christian mit vielen Erinnerungen und Erlebnissen aus seiner Karriere als Musiker verbunden. Er hört seinen Lieblingssong regelmäßig und spielt ihn auch immer wieder mal mit seiner Band.Hier spielt Joe Wulff mit seiner Band die „Mardi Gras Parade“.Hier findest du Joe Wulff auf Wikipedia.Hinterlasse gerne eine Bewertung und abonniere unseren Podcast bei deinem Streamingportal der Wahl und verpasse keine Folge.

In this episode, we discuss the annual Mardi Gras celebrations in New Orleans, which bring joy and revelry to the city but also concern over violent crime. We delve into the recent incident where gunfire broke out during a parade, leaving a teenager dead and four others injured, including a 4-year-old girl. We also explore the political turmoil surrounding New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell and the recall petition launched against her. Finally, we take a look at some of the delicious New Orleans food traditions associated with Mardi Gras, including the king cake and the muffuletta.

Sydney World Pride is underway and this year the famous Mardi Gras Parade is back on its traditional route on Oxford Street.

This weekend Sydney kicks off WorldPride, a global celebration for the LGBTQIA+ community. 17 days of events, performances, rainbows and glitter as far as the eye can see.  We'll see buildings lit up in the Pride flag, streets lined for the annual Mardi Gras Parade,  and thousands of LGBTQIA+ members celebrating.  But amidst the celebration, will also be a human rights conference that aims to create a world that is safe, free and equal for LGBTQIA+ people.  It's sometimes hard to remember the stigma and discrimination that the LGBTQIA+ community still face when we see celebrated pop culture icons and Pride parades with their rainbow flags. But discrimination continues everyday. In this episode we hear from members of the LGBTQIA+ community about their personal experiences with discrimination, as well as speaking to Equality Australia's Legal Director about what we can still do as a nation to protect the LGBTQIA+ community.  Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH Feedback?

Elizabeth Abdalla and Melissa Maeker, board members of Wild Cat Foundation, SpayNation, and Krewe des Chien, are here to discuss their mission to reduce dog and cat overpopulation in Acadiana through the operations of these 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. Both women are passionate spokespersons about their involvement in treating our companion pet population, as well as the feral cat population, humanely and offering high-quality care to these vulnerable, innocent animals. Wild Cat Foundation was created to support no-kill solutions to the stray cat overpopulation in Lafayette and the surrounding area. It is celebrating its 20th year of operation in 2023. Since 2010, Wild Cat has supported the operations of SpayNation which offers high-quality, lost-cost spay/neuter surgeries to the public and rescue organizations, and incredibly, over 70,000 animals have been neutered since the organization's inception. While Wild Cat Foundation is not a rescue organization, they do have adoptable pets at all times. Visit https://wildcatfoundationla.org/ for more information. In 2018, Wild Cat took over operations of Acadiana's favorite dog and family parade, Krewe des Chien. All proceeds are dedicated to supporting local animal shelters' funding for food and care of the rescues. Krewe des Chien Parade is an annual Mardi Gras Parade celebration open to dogs and their loyal human family members. Please consider signing up for the 2023 parade to be held on February 11, 2023, in Downtown Lafayette! It only costs $25 to register and there are also spots available for dog royalty! And please, dogs only....no cats, pigs, goats, cows, or bunnies! For more information, email krewedeschien@gmail.com or visit https://www.facebook.com/KreweDesChien Acadiana's favorite family & dog-friendly parade is back again this year with proceeds benefitting local rescue groups! Established in 1998, Krewe des Chien is a non-profit organization and has been fundraising and distributing funds to the many animal assistance organizations in the Acadiana area in need of financial support. Since the first parade for dogs, Krewe des Chien has raised more than $400,000 in support of its MISSION… to reduce the number of unwanted animals through public education about the benefits of spaying and neutering and to involve the community in an effort to achieve this mission.

Many people abandon their cats when they move or are unable to care for their pets. Then, these cat's offspring are born feral. TNR (Trap, Neuter, and Return) has been proven to be the only humane method to reduce the population of unwanted felines who have never experienced contact with humans. While we may think of them as 'homeless,' in fact they exist in colonies and are self-sufficient.
