RIP Chief Al Morris

download ~ This sweet old cultural icon went from dynamic community leader to mumbliy disoriented basket case after Karina.  At least the few times that I saw Al after this eviction problem he always seemed a llitle worse for wear.  He had a stroke, many medical issues ... and has now finally kicked the bucket.  I wish I was there for his 2nd line.  I'm sure it will be very large.

I still and will always Boycott Igor Margan's businesses.

Fascism in New Orleans

The government is scheduled to demolish thousands of UNDAMAGED units of public housing in New Orleans. The city is in the middle of an affordable housing crisis. Rents have skyrocketed and thousands are homeless. Meanwhile these undamaged apartments have remained unoccupied since the hurricane due to the city boarding them up, fencing them off and arresting trespassers who hold legal leases.

These properties are slated to begin demolition on or after December 15th.
