When Donald Trump was elected president in November, one of his main campaign platforms was cracking down on immigration, calling for the largest deportation operation in U.S. history. Since taking office, he's proposed an order ending birthright citizenship and issued the first flight of undocumented immigrants to Guantanamo Bay.Hiroko Kusuda, clinic professor and director of the immigration law section at the Loyola University of New Orleans College of Law tells us how families should prepare for potential ICE raids.Fifty years ago, 17-year-old Phil Fricano worked to desegregate his high school Mardi Gras ball. Two years later, he helped form the Krewe of King Arthur – one of the first Mardi Gras krewes to be integrated from the very beginning. Now, he's preparing for his 48th year as the krewe's captain.He joins us to discuss  the krewe's history, how it's working to be accessible for riders with disabilities, and he's looking forward to during Sunday's parade.New Orleans Mardi Gras is nothing without its massive parades with masked revelers throwing beads from large floats. But because of the New Year's Day attack on Bourbon Street, the city is requiring more police officers on routes— which means higher costs. The Gulf States Newsroom's Drew Hawkins reports on how smaller, independent parades are vital in New Orleans — and how these costs impact them.___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Ryan Vasquez.

596. Our old friend Derby Gisclair returns to talk about his research into Louisiana politician and snake oil salesman (to the degree they're different!) Dudley J. LeBlanc. "Coozan Dud" was a moderately successful Louisiana politician and a wildly successful salesman of Hadacol, the patent medicine. He hosted a traveling variety show to sell the elixir he created in his bathtub with vitamins, other ingredients, hydrochloric acid, and 12% alcohol.

James "Sugar Boy" Crawford is Born. New Orleans musician James "Sugar Boy" Crawford, Jr., born on October 12, 1934, was the author of "Jock-A-Mo" (1954), a hit that was later recreated as "Iko Iko" by The Dixie Cups and recorded by many artists including Dr. John, Belle Stars, The Grateful Dead, Cyndi Lauper, and as "Geto Boys" by Glass Candy. Starting out on trombone, Crawford formed a band which local DJ Doctor Daddy-O named "The Chapaka Shawee" (Creole for "We Aren't Raccoons"). Although his song "Jock-A-Mo" became a standard at the New Orleans Mardi Gras, Crawford himself disappeared from public view, and in a 2002 interview for Offbeat Magazine, told how his career came to an abrupt halt in 1963, after a severe beating at the hands of state troopers incapacitated him for two years, forcing him to leave the music industry. In 1969, he decided to limit his singing to in church only. In 2012 Crawford made a guest appearance singing gospel on an episode of the HBO series Treme. He died one month before the episode aired. He died on September 15, 2012. after a brief illness in a hospice at age 77. (Wiki) This week in Louisiana. 2024 Nola Reggae Fest Fri. Oct. 25 2024 — Sun.

EPISODE NOTES:Dressing up in costumes and masks has been at the heart of carnival celebrations since the founding of the city in the 1718. In the twentieth century, new groups emerged challenging the status quo and reshaping the festivities into the celebration that is the biggest tourist draw and the most famous public festivities of the Crescent City.

On today's episode of Louisiana Considered, Stephanie Grace joined us to talk about what's jeopardizing next year's Mardi Gras celebrations. Also, Roger Stolle teaches us a bit about juke joints, and Ed Cullen reminisces on a precursor to HVAC systems: the attic fan.   Up first on today's show, Stephanie Grace, columnist for The Advocate | The Times-Picayune, discusses the multitude of political battles faced by New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell. On Thursday night, Cantrell said that Mardi Gras 2023 might be canceled due to a shortage of NOPD officers. She's also under threat of having the city's sewage and water project funding cut by a state commission if New Orleans doesn't enforce Louisiana's near-total abortion ban.   In an encore interview, blues historian Roger Stolle tells us about the history and current state of Southern jazz and blues clubs, colloquially known as “juke joints.”   Ed Cullen, a longtime contributor to NPR and the Baton Rouge Sunday Advocate, recounts his memories of attic fans, which were necessary for life in the Gulf South before the advent of central air conditioning.   Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Patrick Madden.

New Orleans Mardi Gras might be synonymous with krewes, floats, and throws, but in more rural areas of the state, carnival celebrations include riding horseback, catching chickens, and singing call and response French songs. Professor Emeritus of Francophone Studies and Center for Louisiana Studies Research Fellow at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Dr. Barry Ancelet, tells us more about Cajun Mardi Gras customs. But perhaps no rural Mardi Gras celebration is more well known than the chicken chase. And in Eunice, Louisiana, children get a chance to catch a chicken of their own during Lil' Mardi Gras. Eunice City Marshal Terry Darbone and Eunice Director of tourism and Main Street, Alicia Mire tell us more about the history of this event.

There is no post-Christmas letdown in New Orleans. That's because on January 6th the final day of Christmas, also known as twelfth night, the official start of Carnival season begins and goes till the day before Ash Wednesday or the first day of Lent. On the day before Ash Wednesday New Orleans descends into a chaotic flurry of crowds and colorful masks all in celebration of Mardi Gras (the last day of the Carnival celebration) and also known as "Fat Tuesday." Music is a key component to the carnival season and to New Orleans life in general and there have been many artists throughout the years that have lifted up the Mardi Gras spirit in their music and on today's show in honor of Mardi Gras Day on March 1st this year, we are (figuratively) going to down to New Orleans to give you our favorite Mardi Gras inspired songs.Spotify Playlist - Down to New Orleans (Mardi Gras Episode)www.rightfiction.com

I did this interview just before fhe world shut down in March of 2020 This is in lieu of having a real Mardi Gras Day. They’ve called Davell Crawford the “Piano Prince of New Orleans.” He has had long and diverse career playing all kinds of music, New Orleans R&B, Gospel, Rock n Roll, Blues, and Jazz but he was trained as a classical musician too. His grandfather, James “Sugar Boy” Crawford wrote and recorded “Jock-a-Mo” which you know as “Iko Iko” for Chess records in 1954. And when he was young he hung out with Fats Domino. He never moved back to New Orleans after the flood but New Orleans never left his soul. No longer a prodigy but now a musician with a long string of great albums who tours the world, he’s now in New York which is where I called him on a day when the whole world seemed to be self-quarantined. That would be Monday, March 16, 2020. Meet Davell Crawford

Hillside High School Marching Band, Durham, N.C. Hillside High School Marching Band is a 110 piece marching band of outstanding excellency. I marched and played as an alto saxophone player of the Hillside High School Marching Band from August, 1990 to June, 1994 and I attended Summer band camp every year with the band family for band practice. The band director at that time was Clarke Edgerton. Mr. Edgerton received his Bachelor of Arts degree and master of arts degree from North Carolina College which is now called North Carolina Central University. Honors and awards have been given towards Mr. Edgerton's service, that are, the Harry Mendelson Memorial plaque from the New Orleans Mardi Gras parades; Certificates of Appreciation from Presidents Gerald A. Ford and Ronald Reagan; a plaque from Super Holiday Tours for performances in Central Florida, and a plaque from Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, for performances during this Centennial Birthday Celebration and many more trophies over the years. Hillside's band has traveled throughout the United States and was featured in the movie, titled, Ink Well. Hillside High School Marching Band also marches at the Mardi Gras parades in New Orleans. Hillside High School marching band is a competitive ensemble that participates in competitions locally and regionally. It is truly a band of success and it is talented. In addition. We practiced drills of marching during summer band camp when I was in the Hillside High School Marching Band. Every band student would be drilled from band director and drum major with practice drills. These practice drills were helpful to your marching, steps, dancing, performance and design. The band practice would give you this one drill where no one must mess up. They choose one member to watch everyone. This member will point you out and make you come up to the front and do the drill all by youtself in front of the band if you get off step. The drills would be on whatever steps, dance moves, performance or part of the design you messed up on.

Howard Philips Smith has been investigating and writing about the gay history of New Orleans for over two decades. Raised on a small farm in rural Southern Mississippi, he studied French literature and taught English in a French lycée in Bordeaux thanks to a Fulbright Scholarship before moving to New Orleans in the 1980s. After a decade in the Crescent City, Smith moved to Los Angeles and completed his novel The Cult of the Mask, based on the experiences of New Orleans’ gay community before the onslaught of AIDS. The research for this work resulted in two books: Unveiling the Muse and Southern Decadence. In this interview, we discuss Unveiling the Muse: The Lost History of Gay Carnival in New Orleans (University Press of Mississippi, 2017) a thorough investigation of the history of New Orleans’ Mardi Gras krewes. Gay Carnival krewes were first formed in New Orleans in the late 1950s, growing out of costume parties. Their balls were often held in clandestine locations to avoid harassment. Despite their rich history and important contribution to the city’s defining festival, gay New Orleans Carnival remained a hidden and almost lost history thanks in part to moments of crisis such as the AIDS epidemic and Hurricane Katrina. In Unveiling the Muse Howard Philips Smith not only recovers the story of these organizations and the fascinating people behind it, but also compiles an impressive collection of information/documents/sources/images that will certainly be extremely useful to those investigating not only the history of New Orleans, but also of festivities and of queer urban experiences across the globe. The book contains a list of all the balls, themes, and royalty of each krewe, along with stunning images of the colorful ephemera associated with the gay Mardi Gras balls: posters, invitations, costume and stage set sketches, and programs. Also of note are the photographs of the everyday lives and celebrations of queer people in the city in the post-World War II era, which help Philips contextualize these stories. Isabel Machado is a Brazilian historian, living and teaching in Mexico while finishing a book about Carnival in Mobile, Alabama. Her new project is an investigation of different generations of artists and performers who challenge gender normativity in Monterrey, Nuevo León.

Mardi Gras Indian Eric Burt talks about the deep traditions and rich history of this uniquely New Orleans Carnival tradition. As a native of New Orleans, Burt is steeped in the city's local customs. Every year, Burt and dozens of other Mardi Gras Indian tribes spend countless hours creating intricate and beautiful outfits decked out with thousands of tiny beads and plumes of brightly colored feathers. On Mardi Gras Morning, the Indians debut their creations and go head to head with other tribes to see who is the "prettiest." While the encounters between Indian tribes weren't always peaceful in the past, Burt sees this beautiful tradition as a cultural jewel to pass down to future generations.

Arthur Hardy, Mardi Gras expert and historian, publishes the annual Mardi Gras Guide. Arthur shares the big news for Carnival 2008: the Krewe of Endymeon's long awaited return to its pre-Katrina Mid-City route. "It sends a message that the police department, if not at full strength, is strong enough to handle the large crowds in Mid-City", Arthur says. And he notes that the pre-parade party and concert on Orleans Avenue are great fun, too. Arthur also talks about "Family Gras" in Metairie on the first weekend of Mardi Gras.

Arthur Hardy, nationally recognized authority on New Orleans Mardi Gras, publishes "Arthur Hardy's Mardi Gras Guide". Arthur shares the good news that Mardi Gras 2007-- the second Carnival celebration since Hurricane Katrina-- will be a typical Mardi Gras in terms of the number of parades rolling. "Also, we have approximately 3,000 more hotel rooms than last year", Arthur says. He expresses optimism about New Orleans' ongoing recovery based on his own business and many other businesses in New Orleans that are doing well.

Most of us know Arthur Hardy as a nationally recognized authority on New Orleans Mardi Gras and publisher of "Arthur Hardy's Mardi Gras Guide". Arthur's love for the city does not stop at Mardi Gras, however. He is now on the board of a New Orleans charter school, namely Warren Easton. Hear Arthur explain how the board plans to make this school a shining example of the New Orleans recovery.

For years, mankind has been sending signals into deep space, searching for extraterrestrial life, hoping to receive a reply. Today, we finally got one. It wasn’t the kind we were expecting. The festive mood of New Orleans Mardi Gras is suddenly broken as an intergalactic spaceship blots out the sky. Their response to our message is simple: ” Peoples of the Planet Terra. I am Marin, Commander of the Androsi flagship Traka. We have received your notice of war and have come to respond. I find it odd, though. Our scans show your technological level to be quite low. You can barely escape your planet’s gravity and you’ve never travelled beyond your system. Why would you invite such as this upon yourself? Oh well, it doesn’t matter. Honour must be maintained. Prepare to die.” Mankind’s greatest disaster has come upon him as, in a matter of moments, New Orleans becomes the first victim of alien reprisal. It seems Earth’s gesture of friendship to the galaxy has been grossly misinterpreted. But who can stop the ensuing cataclysm unleashed by a race bent on vengeance? Before Earth can muster what forces it can, a second ship appears in the skies. Then a third. Androsi? No! Earth’s signals have been intercepted by other alien races as well. And now the Funari and the Stephani have come to exact their retribution as well upon a world foolish enough to challenge them. With three alien races vying for the honour of destroying mankind and the earth caught in the middle, is anyone able to stop the madness and save the world? From the pen of John S. Drew, the writer who brought you The Time Brokers, comes another story destined to be a classic: Doomsday Signal.

And now the Funari and the Stephani have come to exact their retribution as well upon a world foolish enough to challenge them.
