Listen "Ned Sublette, Speaking Spanish in New Orleans"
Episode Synopsis
Ned Sublette is the author of two books elucidating New Orleans, a city with a uniquely complex history of cultural intermingling. The World That Made New Orleans explores the city’s first century, and the forthcoming The Year Before the Flood takes up Sublette’s personal history with the city, along with the strange final year for the city as we knew it. Sublette discusses the character and culture of New Orleans, then and now. Sublette delivered this keynote address at Zócalo’s conference on Race and Immigration in Post-Katrina America, generously sponsored by the Carnegie Corporation of New York.
