Dr. Vinciguerra is accompanied by his Uncle Stefano Campo who shares with him how his family is a part of the museum's history. His private tour of the museum includes visiting the patio garden where a stature of Giuseppe Garibaldi is located. Giuseppe Garibaldi is one of Italy's founding fathers and helped to unify the nations to create the Kingdom of Italy.
Dr. Vinciguerra is then led upstairs to visit the museum which includes a the history of why Italians explored the New World, how they immigrated to the United States, and how they lived in the Southeastern part of the U.S. in Louisiana. The tour includes learning about the largest mass lynching in the United States that occurred of 11 Italian Americans in 1891.
Then, Dr. Vinciguerra shares the importance of music in the Italian culture and how New Orleans was the first city in the United States to have an opera house located in the French Quarter. He then describes how Italian Americans help influence Jazz and other genres of popular music.
Mardi Gras was an important holiday that many Italian celebrated as Carnevale dating back to 1904 Venice Italy and then spread to France. These traditions were then brought to New Orleans and are a very important part of the cities culture and festivities. St. Joseph's Day is a Sicilian celebration that occurs on March 19 and Dr. Vinciguerra shares with you how these special altars that honor Saint Joseph, is who Sicilians prayed to for help during a famine in Sicily many centuries ago. This tradition was also brought with many Sicilians to New Orleans which in modern times St. Joseph Alters are a way of Italian Americans giving back to many of the poor communities in the city.
The American Italian Cultural Center also houses the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame and provides many services to the community by offering classes on the Italian Language and culture, as well as hosting many special events, festivals, and concerts throughout the year.

New Orleans is a Louisiana city on the Mississippi River, near the Gulf of Mexico. Nicknamed the Big Easy, it's known for its round-the-clock nightlife, vibrant live-music scene and spicy, singular cuisine reflecting its history as a melting pot of French, African and American cultures. Embodying its festive spirit is Mardi Gras, the late-winter carnival famed for raucous costumed parades and street parties.
The things that make life worth living – eating, drinking and the making of merriment – are the air that New Orleans breathes. We hope you’re not reading this at home. We hope you’re in New Orleans, because you’re about to eat better than most others. When it comes to food, New Orleans does not fool around. Well, OK, it does: its playful attitude to ingredients and recipes mixes (for example) alligator sausage and cheesecake into a dessert fit for the gods. This sense of gastronomic play is rooted in both deep traditions – truly, this city has one of the few indigenous cuisines in the country – and, increasingly, a willingness to accommodate outside influences, both in terms of technique and ethnicity.
We're not exaggerating when we say there is either a festival or a parade every week of the year in New Orleans. Sometimes, such as during Mardi Gras or Jazz Fest, it feels like there’s a new party for every hour of the day. At almost any celebration in town, people engage in masking – donning a new appearance via some form of costuming – while acting out the satyric side of human behavior. But the celebrations and rituals of New Orleans are as much about history as hedonism, and every dance is as much an expression of tradition and community spirit as it is of joy.
The Crescent City has suffered plagues, wars, imperial regime changes and devastating floods. Yet, it always wakes up with a smile on its face. This may be because its inhabitants step to an easy beat first laid down three centuries ago. Moving at this relaxed pace, visitors are delighted by the French Creole elegance of the Vieux Carre (French Quarter) or the opulence discovered in a streetcar ride through the Garden District and Uptown.
Anytime of year find live music, amazing Creole and Cajun cuisine, fresh seafood, farmers markets, shopping, nightlife and more. During Mardi Gras season, the city becomes the world’s center. Downtown transforms into an adult playground, while parades in residential areas provide children thrilling entertainment. Each spring, the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival moves the focus to the charming Gentilly area and the Fair Grounds Race Course. But no matter the time of year, New Orleans' calendar overflows in celebration.

Places to see in ( New Orleans - USA ) New Orleans City Park
City Park, a 1,300-acre (5.3 km2) public park in New Orleans, Louisiana, is the 87th largest and 20th-most-visited urban public park in the United States. City Park is approximately 50% larger than Central Park in New York City, the municipal park recognized by Americans nationwide as the archetypal urban greenspace. Although it is an urban park whose land is owned by the City of New Orleans, it is administered by the City Park Improvement Association, an arm of state government, not by the New Orleans Parks and Parkways Department. City Park is very unusual in that it is a largely self-supporting public park, with most of its annual budget derived from self-generated revenue through user fees and donations.
In the wake of the enormous damage inflicted upon the park due to Hurricane Katrina, the Louisiana Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism began to partially subsidize the park's operations. City Park holds the world's largest collection of mature live oak trees, some older than 600 years in age. The park was founded in 1854, making it the 48th oldest park in the country, and established as the City Park in 1891.
The park was originally a location used for dueling. In the 1800s, men would defend their pride and honor by dueling each other under the oaks at what is now City Park but then was a normally quiet spot secluded from the rest of the city. Originally, there were two dueling oaks, but one was lost in a hurricane in 1949. City Park was established in the mid-19th century on land fronting Metairie Road (now City Park Avenue), along the remains of Bayou Metairie, a former distributary of the Mississippi River.

⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Walking New Orleans (Narrated) : Central Business District in Early Morning (August 24, 2019)
Google Maps Route:
A walk in New Orleans, Lousiana in the Central Business District during the Early Morning. This walk includes places such as New Orleans City Hall, the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, Lee Circle, National WW2 Museum, and Magazine Street.
From Wikipedia:
The Central Business District (CBD) is a neighborhood of the city of New Orleans, Louisiana, United States.
A subdistrict of the French Quarter/CBD area, its boundaries, as defined by the City Planning Commission, are Iberville, Decatur and Canal Streets to the north; the Mississippi River to the east; the New Orleans Morial Convention Center, Julia and Magazine Streets, and the Pontchartrain Expressway to the south; and South Claiborne Avenue, Cleveland Street, and South and North Derbigny Streets to the west. It is the equivalent of what many cities call their downtown, although in New Orleans downtown or down town was historically used to mean all portions of the city downriver from Canal Street (in the direction of flow of the Mississippi River). In recent decades, however, use of the catch-all downtown adjective to describe neighborhoods downriver from Canal Street has largely ceased, having been replaced in usage by individual neighborhood names (such as Bywater).
Originally developed as the largely-residential Faubourg Ste. Marie (English: St. Mary Suburb) in the late 18th century, the modern Central Business District is today a dynamic, mixed-use neighborhood, the home of professional offices in skyscrapers, specialty and neighborhood retail stores, numerous restaurants and clubs, and thousands of residents inhabiting restored, historic commercial and industrial buildings.

The New Orleans Massacre of 1866
The New Orleans Massacre of 1866 occurred on July 30, during a violent conflict as white Democrats including police and firemen attacked Republicans, most of them African American, parading outside the Mechanics Institute in New Orleans. It was the site of a reconvened Louisiana Constitutional Convention. The Republicans in Louisiana had called for the Convention, as they were angered by the legislature's enactment of the Black Codes and its refusal to give black men the vote. Democrats considered the reconvened convention to be illegal and were suspicious of Republican attempts to increase their political power in the state. The riot stemmed from deeply rooted political, social, and economic causes, and took place in part because of the battle between two opposing factions for power and office. There were a total of 150 black casualties, including 44 killed. In addition, three white Republicans were killed, as was one white protester.
The national reaction of outrage at the Memphis riots of 1866 and this riot nearly three months later led to Republicans gaining a majority in the United States House of Representatives and the Senate in the 1866 election. The riots catalyzed support for the Fourteenth Amendment, extending suffrage and full citizenship to freedmen, and the Reconstruction Act, to establish military districts for the national government to oversee areas of the South and work to change their social arrangements.
The convention met at noon on July 30, but a lack of a quorum caused postponement to 1:30. When the convention members left the building, they were met by the black marchers with their marching band. On the corner of Common and Dryades streets, across from the Mechanics Institute, a group of armed whites awaited the black marchers. This group was composed of Democrats who opposed abolition and led by Mayor John Monroe.
After the reorganization of Louisiana, Monroe was reelected Mayor of New Orleans. He took office in March 1866. In March 1867, he was deposed by General Philip Sheridan under the Reconstruction Act of Congress, under the accusation that he had aided in the riot of July 30. In April Monroe visited Washington and was sympathetically received by President Andrew Johnson and Attorney-General Henry Stanbery, who promised his restoration to office and the removal of Sheridan. However, this promise was thwarted by later and more vigorous Reconstruction efforts.
The national reaction to the New Orleans riot and to the earlier Memphis riots of 1866, was one of heightened concern about the current Reconstruction strategy and desire for a change of leadership. In the 1866 House of Representatives and Senate elections, the Republicans won in a landslide, gaining 77% of the seats in Congress.
Early in 1867, the First Reconstruction Act was passed – over the President's veto – to provide for more federal control in the South. Military districts were created to govern the region until violence could be suppressed and a more democratic political system established.
The Fourteenth Amendment (Amendment XIV) to the United States Constitution was adopted on July 9, 1868, as one of the Reconstruction Amendments. Arguably one of the most consequential amendments to this day, the amendment addresses citizenship rights and equal protection of the laws and was proposed in response to issues related to former slaves following the American Civil War.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fort Worth is the fifth-largest city in the U.S. state of Texas and the 13th-largest city in the United States. It is the county seat of Tarrant County, covering nearly 350 square miles (910 km2) into three other counties: Denton, Parker, and Wise.

New Orleans Mayor Shakspeare Lynched Acquitted Scilians on March 14, 1891
Vendetta is an HBO Movie billed as the largest lynching in American History, the March 14, 1891 lynching by a mob estimated from 8,000 to 20,000 of 6 Acquitted Sicilians and 3 ruled a mistrial, in the killing of Police Chief David Hennessy.
From what we have read it is very close to the facts. Sicilians who managed the loading docks of New Orleans and the Produce of the French Market were blamed, arrested, and tried.
'Vendetta' is based on the work of Richard Gambino shows a different perspective. The focus is James Houston of the Louisiana Construction Improvement Corporation, who wants to take control of the docks from Joseph Mancheca.
Mancheca is supported by Hennessy, who refuses Mayor Joseph Shakspeare and James Houston's power play to obtain control.
Mancheca and Mantranga were both at the theatre the night of the killing but arrested and tried. When acquitted, Houston and New Orleans Mayor Shakspeare turned to the Democratic Party's Crescent City White League led by William Parkerson to push their anti-Sicilian Agenda.
Parkerson ran an ad in the Times-Picayune Newspaper requesting a mob organize and storm the prison the next day and do the justice the jury refused to do.
Shortly after the Lynching, Mayor Shakspeare and the City Council passed legislation banning Italians form the loading docks and turning the docks over to James Houston's company.
Hennessy had other enemies. He had been acquitted in killing two cops and his dad had been killed by a fellow New Orleans Police officer.
However Hennessy was popular and considered a threat to Mayor Shakspeare.
The full movie is available at the library.
The Liberty Monument in New Orleans was erected shortly after the lynching. Some in the Italian community the story of the lynching added to the monument and the names of those lynched.
John T. Campo, Sicilian Immigration Story
My name is John T. Campo and I am a third generation immigrant to New Orleans and South Louisiana from Sicily within my maternal and paternal lineage. Currently, I am an architect that specializes in hospitality design and real estate development within the city of New Orleans and across the United States.
