I'm from Louisiana and I am so proud to live here. When I go to New Orleans I just have a feel good vibe, I don't notice it there is trash or if there is something not perfect, I notice the history and happiness. The warm humid air and the jazz music playing, you can feel the heat and sensation of delight and music in the air. The culture is so amazing. Cruising on the Chufunkta( I dunno how to spell it sorry) River every day. The warmth of the sun hits you and the brees in your hair is magical. I Love the sweet, delightful, amazing, miraculous Louisiana. :)

Nola has more culture in one block, than all the cities in the world combined .The only place I've ever been where as a trumpet player you really feel like your in your element ,although if your a struggling jazz musician ,the price of living in the French Quarter is unaffordable . Unfortunately this video does not show you the great disparity in New Orleans .The French Quarter although beautiful as it is ,is only for the rich, only the rich can afford to buy houses there and rent condos. The people of New Orleans itself are poor and depend on the income of the French quarter to make a living as dishwashers, Cooks and entertainers, etc.One must also use Extreme Caution when visiting New Orleans make sure not to venture out at night in areas you don't know .It used to have the highest murder rate in the country Just be smart ,be safe always be in the company of other people. Shootings in the French Quarter are rare , but do happen occasionally. But all in all it's a place everyone needs to go to, at least once in your lifetime.

Freddy Frug it is inaccurate to say African Americans! The correct term is French Creole or Louisiana Creoles......Jessie Jackson coined the term in the 80's and he did not have in mind anything Lousiana! Many people are complicating American history (Louisiana) by trying to add African American to the history! I know you didn't mean any harm BUT I have to call your attention to the fact African American fall under Anglo-Saxon British history. African Americans are not generally a people who speak Kouri-Vini, Louisiana Creole, French OR follow the history and culture of the Louisiana Territory. As a matter of fact I have interviewed African Americans and like most people do not know much about the history of Louisiana Creole,Cajun or Acadian people! To change the name of Lousisiana/French Creole is like changing the name Cajun or Acadian people. It's simply not necessary or correct! African-Americans do not have generations of relationships with Cajun or Acadian people BUT Louisiana Creole's do!!! If you have read any of the thousands of books written about LA Creole history or Louisiana Creole the term African American is NOT mentioned BUT Creole is! Trying to make the understanding of mixed race people like that of the views of British American or U.S. history is very wrong to do! Many Louisiana Creoles do NOT celebrate just African roots BUT take great interest in recognizing ALL of their blended blood and history. WE cannot be marginalized like that of the African American history which does not give recognition to the free use of culture and customs. In your commentary you said: While it's somewhat known that French surnames are more common among African Americans in New Orleans than in any other place in the nation, No it is common that French surnames are more common amongst people of Creole heritage NOT African American heritage. There are grave historical differences please read and educate yourself from books that predated U.S. history and people that try to use the term African American interchangeably do not understand the history of the people who formed the Louisiana Territory...My history is almost 10 generations of Louisiana Creoles Bloodline!!!!

I love New Orleans, have lived there, and it has been for 45 years an integral part of my life. Of course the city has French roots. But the device of having New Orleanians speak in French in this video creates an impression that French is commonly spoken. It is not. Yes, there are individuals, Creole Associations, and and other private situations where it is heard. But if you hear French spoken on the street-except for the occasional phrase or word that is part of everyday speech- you are likely hearing a tourist.

We worshipped at the Cathedral every Sunday, walking from our apartment in the Lower Pontalba. The history of Nouvelle Orleans owes so much to Micaela Almonester, daughter of Don Andreas Almonester, who was married to Celestin de Pontalba at the age of 15. Taken back to France, she was shot by her father-in-law as he wanted her vast dowry.

Baroness de Pontalba returned to Louisiana, where she turned the Plaza des Armas (the drill grounds in front of the Cathedral and the Cabildo) into a park, commissioned the equestrian statue of Andrew Jackson, hero of the Battle of New Orleans, and named all Jackson Square. This brilliant woman then created twin apartment buildings in the style of Parisian buildings. Many innovations, such as the prefabrication of segments and the wrought iron work eith the initials “MAP” were brought to the site. She then returned to France to care for her mentally unbalanced husband until his death.

Lol it’s called a secondline

Une version en français serait intéressante.

The Cathedral was named after St Louis (Louis the IX}. Most people of free color bought themselves out of slavery: many came from St Domingue fleeing the revolution.

It was the site of an abandoned Indian village.

These white French descendants are called French Creoles. And there is plenty of French ancestry (Acadian/cajun type) between New Orleans and Bayou Lafourche too...like Luling, Boutte, Des Allemands, raceland, Lockport etc. and plenty on Bayou Lafaourche... you can’t be from Southeast Louisiana and saying something like that....

The Cathedral of St. Louis King of France was named for Louis IX. It was rebuilt by Don Andres Almonester y Roxas following a fire which destroyed much of the city. To the right of the Cathedral is the Cabildo, the center of government for both the Spanish and French government of the region. The Vieux Carre was developed by Don Andreas’ daughter, Micaela Almonester. Married at 15 and taken back to France, her life was turned to horror as her father-in-law tried to kill her for her dowry. After he shot her, he killed himself. Micaela then fought for and recovered her fortune and sailed back to New Orleans. Here she planned and built the twin Pontalba apartments. She then honored Andrew Jackson, hero of the Battle of New Orleans. The drill grounds in front of the Cabildo, the Cathedral and the Presbytere were turned into a park. Here she erected the equestrian statue of Jackson, enclosed the grounds with wrought iron railings and renamed it Jackson Square.

Saint Louis was medieval king Louis IX (the Ninth) - depicted at 6:21 - and not Louis XIV (the Fourteenth) who was never beatified. I hope the rest of the documentary is better researched... 7:42 I don't doubt that, but they avoid io digg too deep and skip over the fact that some of the more well-off free peoples of color also owned slaves at that time, which shouldn't be a surprise: slavery had always been a prevalent practice in African cultures long before Europe jumped on the bandwagon (even though you could say that, in the middle ages, serfdom was basically slavery that didn't say its name, as would be indentured servitude later) and, after all, that's where Europeans bought them to other Africans in the first place. 25:20 Mmh, with lyrics like: "Plaisir d'amour ne dure qu'un moment, Chagrin d'amour dure toute la vie." (Love's pleasure only lasts one moment, Heartbreak lasts forever), I wouldn't say "Plaisir d'Amour" - a song about a guy who has been dumped for another one by his girlfriend - is a love song...

LOL " at the times thes places were less like Jazz Clubs and more like brothels" just say it how it was they were brothels! Stroyvill was americas only legal red light districk until 1917 when the US navy forced it to shut down. New orleans made back in the day something like 2-3 million a year off of taxes collected from brothels in those 16 blocks were the Iberville Prject now occupies convert that to today and it would be something like 20 million or more a year. But in reality the districkt as it was called was ment to shield the "Undesirables" from respectable new orleans society. Afer all many of Louisiana's firt generation of mothers and wifes were former whores and new orleans allways seemed to have a Look the other way approch to the worlds oldest instutuion, but of course they did not want a madam setting up a cat house or gambling parlor next to there house which did happen, so to get controll of the vice problem in New Orleans the city created a Red Light District 16 blocks were Prostution and gambling was (within reason) legal. armstrong was for most of "storyville's" 20 year history just a Kid but he cut his teeth lerning jazz not to mention Pimping from other big names of the time . Virtully nothing of Stroyvill remains, except mabe 8 - 10 buildings and old pictures.

I was reading in a old collection of folk tales and ghost stories and local and stae history of LA. that when Spainish rule ended the french of LA were overjoyed to be reunited with mother france and then napolion sold new france and it people to the growing united states for a song and the inhabitants were not very pleased to put it politly, so Napolion was def. not popular with everybody. La was allso deeply catholic were most of America in 1803 were not, they spoke french and had french ways despit being a colany of spain for about 30 or 40 years and Early america saw the freanch and freanch culture as degenerate and decadent and against the american way of life wench why the usefull invention of the Beeday never cuaght on in the USA....mores the pitty. the french & creole planters and aristocracy were horrified and looked down on the new flow os Anglo saxions to LA and new orleans who eventually took over in the areas of buissness and social life and plantionon life as well. in fackt French culture and customs in new france were allmost compleatly wiped out by the time the civil wat broke out. luckyly it was not whiped out alltogether and is protected by those who are prowd decendants of mother france, wether they were smugglers, whores , deposed or exiled aristocrates or other casses of criminals.

Hey Shift Er ! Do you a even a simple idea of what The French origin of north America is ? www.google.ca/search?q=history+of+france+in+north+america+map&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=fr-ca&client=safari#imgrc=xK1kwdHqs6XDIM:

French heritage? Funny how everyone says it was named Louisiana. No. It was named Louisianne. The Spanish changed it to Louisiana. And the French Quarter is the SPANISH Quarter. The Catholicism is Spanish. The Spanish from Louisiana helped George Washington with money and troops. France was brook. The Spanish gave money to France to give the USA. But let's go along with the whole French idea that's been fed to us.

@@francinesicard464 Not really, he's right for the most part. Though Catholicism is due to France too. But he's not rewriting history, rather philo-French sentiment has rewritten history a little bit (not trully, just forgot everything Spanish lol). The French Quarter is definitely Spanish, not truly french, in fact, it is called Vieux Carré in French, as it was one of the oldest, but it burned down and was then rebuilt by Spaniards following Spanish styles. It is also Spain who helped the USA the most, not France, and of course Spanish Lousiana (not French Louisiana). About Spain fgivinf money to France so that France gave it to the USA, nah, I don't think so. France contributed a bit to USA independece (way WAY less than Spain, though) on its own account, not with Spanish money. It is also La Louisiane in French, it was indeed the Spanish who changed the spelling, which is obvious to any one who knows a little bit of Spanish and French. And mind, I know French culture and influence is much greater in Louisiana than the one from Spain, but I'm also well aware of how the Spanish influence and past has been grossly overlooked, even tot he point of claming Spanish elements to be French. So no, no one is rewriting history, is more abut actually writing the entire and correct history, and not cherrypick part of it or turn Spanish influence into French influence because of some sort of anti-Spanish sentiment due to Spanish Black Legend, promoted by English, Dutch and French for centuries.
