French Louisiana, and the police

I really MUST study the Louisiana-Caribbean connection in greater detail — there’s a 19th century novel called Macandal, and Séjour has a short story, Le Mulâtre, about paternity as well as a play about Jewishness and limpieza de sangre.

In police news, consider the story of Fred Hampton, some damning evidence on the FBI, and a good analysis.

Axé.
