835 Julia St. Unit A, New Orleans, LA 70113

Photo of the Week for January 29th, 2007

We finally did it. But we are far from salvation.

It took way too many murders in a short amount of time, and two very senseless murders of an amazing drummer/teacher and an artist to get us out the door. Every protest i have been in in New Orleans, or heard of was always met with SAD attendance. But two weeks ago we marched on City Hall from 3 different areas of town, and ended up numbering over 5,000 people. We said something, we said it loud, and they are listening. Just the other day, task forces from the FBI, ATF, and other gov. agencies added to our dwindling police force to help out. And new approaches are being taken to combat crime and drug related murders, and things will be better.

I marched with my Lower Garden District/Central City crew from the little church up on Dryades. Here are some pics:
