Blacks Mark New Orleans’ 300th Birthday
Nellie Bailey and Glen Ford
16 Jan 2018

Dr Clyde Robertson will oversee three days of events marking three centuries of Black experience in New Orleans, beginning January 18. Robertson is director of African and African American Studies at Southern University, New Orleans. He was among the 100,000 Blacks exiled from the city in 2005 following Hurricane Katrina, including “the politicized community” that had taken the lead in community affairs.
