This would be an awesome way to integrate more activity back into the East

There is so much beauty and promise there! I hope they find a way to safely open this historic beach! Seems like a great place for festivals as well!

God bless this man...

There s been people out there for years, great to see the councilwoman into it

I had my 10th birthday party at Lincoln beach!

I am glad that there was a relatively safe beach for African Americans to enjoy in NewOrleans. The park looked like a fun, clean place with pools and rides. Pictures show swimming lessons and diving board competitions and many good memories and fun. Someone spent a lot of money to make this place better than most pools or parks in the sixties. The past can be ugly but New Orleans shows us it’s history is exciting vibrant too. It is sad it closed but segregation was necessary to allow people to share each other’s lives and cultures. 💕♥️♥️❤️🙏🌅

It says a lot, though, that Lincoln Beach closed. It meant it was the lesser of the two beaches. Too bad it wasn't kept open, desegregated and developed.

Not all Jim Crow was Doom and gloom. Looking at the photos of Lincoln Beach it look like a completely charming place. I know in Austin the Austin State hospital had separate dorms and a cafeteria for black patients . Just a few years ago they tore the building down. For its time in 1957 it look like an exquisite cafeteria for black patients. I would have dinex there myself. I wish they would keep the building and the history alive. We all need to remember. And it could have been utilized again.

I use to play here as a kid . I know that place like the back of my hand

Can't arrest that man. Clean up it's the closest thing to God. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🇺🇸

love it

They should make it into a historical state park.

Mark Morial got state monies to redo Lincoln beach.Where did that go

Celebrate with all cultures?, that's why the beach was closed down in the first place because we gave it up for social intergration. You have to make this issue just about black people not everybody else.

You say i'm a racist,racism is a practice which white people use everyday against black people. Black people can't create laws and policies that can stop white folks from living in a certain area,blacks can't stop white people from attending a all black school,blacks can't deprive whites from their humanity,exclude whites from competing economically etc. You say we came too far,GTFOH it's the same racism( it's just more diabolical).
