NEW ORLEANS JAZZ TOUR (#1) RIDE THE CANAL STREET/ALGIERS POINT FERRY FROM THE FRENCH QUARTER ACROSS THE MIGHTY MISSISSPPI RIVER TO ALGIERS “OVER DA RIVER” - TO HISTORIC ALGIERS TAKE A FREE SELF-GUIDED WALKING TOUR, AND VISIT THE FORMER HOMES OF ALGIERS’ JAZZ MUSICIANS, THE VENUES THEY PLAYED IN, AND THE ROBERT E. NIMS JAZZ WALK OF FAME, AND GET THE BEST VIEW OF NEW ORLEANS’ SKYLINE COPYRIGHT © 2016, KEVIN HERRIDGE www.risingsunbnb.com Jazz musicians of the 1920s referred to Algiers as “over da river” or the “Brooklyn of the South,” the latter for its proximity to New Orleans as compared to New York and Brooklyn, both separated by a river. This tour concentrates on the Algiers Point neighborhood, that has a long, rich history of African American, French, Spanish, German, Irish, and Italian/Sicilian residents. Algiers, the second oldest neighborhood in New Orleans after the French Quarter, was the site of the slave holding areas, newly arrived from Africa, the powder magazine, and slaughterhouse of the early 18th century. John McDONOGH, the richest man, and largest landowner in New Orleans, lived here. Algiers was famous countrywide in the African American communities for its “Voodoo” and “Hoodoo” practitioners, and is celebrated in songs on this subject. The earliest bands containing Algiers’ musicians included the Pickwick Brass Band (1873-1900s), the Excelsior Brass Band (1880-1928), Jim DORSEY’s Band (1880s), Prof. MANETTA’s String Band (1880s), BROWN’s Brass Band of McDonoghville (1880s), and Prof. A. L. TIO’s String Band (aka the Big Four) (1880s), the Pacific Brass Band (1900-1912), and Henry ALLEN’s Brass Band (1907-1940s). -

Landscape of Remembrance: Spatial Distribution of New Orleans Katrina Commemorations
Landscape of Remembrance: Spatial Distribution of New Orleans Katrina Commemorations Mike Winiski – Furman University / Penn State University Drew Woten – Furman University Perspective “’Distant reading’ I have once called this type of approach; where distance is however not an obstacle but a specific form of knowledge: fewer elements, hence a sharper sense of their overall interconnection. Shapes, relations, structures. Forms. Models.” Moretti, 2005, Graphs, Maps, Trees Research Questions 1. How do the locations and forms of Katrina commemorations in greater New Orleans correspond to storm impact? 2. Are certain contingents, as represented by place and demographics, excluded from the commemoration process? 3. Do the form and nature of these commemorations vary across the city and different neighborhoods? If so, how? http://www.flickr.com/photos/midnightquill/416540958/sizes/z/in/photostream/ Defining Commemoration 1. Has a discernible location (temporary or permanent) 2. Visibly invokes a remembrance of Katrina event 3. Invokes memory of event or collective loss, rather than individual memorials (grave markers, etc.) Purpose of Commemorations • Remember • Grieve • Honor lost loved ones • Hold accountable / Ascribe responsibility • Express anger • Confirm community through shared experience • Tell stories • Express hope • Promote understanding within and beyond community http://photos.nola.com/photogallery/2010/08/hurricane_katrina_body_art_15.html http://www.flickr.com/photos/navillusphotography/3626506521/sizes/z/in/photostream/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/navillusphotography/3626506521/sizes/z/in/photostream/ Exclusion “Cultural, just as individual memory is an extremely narrow space regulated by rigid principles of selection and forgetting. Those who examined the borderline—Gray speaking for the poor peasants, Woolf speaking for women, Ellison speaking for African Americans— were for the first time calling attention to the structural mechanisms that exclude whole groups of the population from active participation in the cultural memory” (Assmann, 2009, p.
