Comparative Creoles
This essay places Louisiana Creole culture and identity into comparative perspective with the evolution of Creole identity and créolité in Haiti and the French Antilles. While Haitian and Antillean intellectuals wrestled at the crossroads of French and African culture over the course of the twentieth century, the leading intellectuals of Louisiana’s Creole society were more likely to embrace French language and culture than to work self-conscious…
Bricks in the Making of Race and Place
This essay facilitates a multi-dimensional immersion into the life and rhythms of New Orleans, an entrée to the past that equips us to better understand the present and, from there, critically and creatively to envision our possible futures together. We explore the Faubourg Tremé by traversing layers of its lieux de souvenir - places of remembering, a concept inspired by but distinct from Pierre Nora’s lieux de mémoire - across three time periods…
A racial re-framing of Modernity and the Jews
Goldberg presents a nicely argued examination that demonstrates how sociology's foundational thinkers used the experience of Jews to make sense of the transition from traditional to modern societies. While major European theorists were either negative or ambivalent about the Jewish community, US scholars were more likely to see Jews as pointing the way toward a more modern, diverse America. The US story, however, is more complex, and Goldberg's a…
Fault Line
St. Domingue as Training Ground
Chapter 2 provides an in-depth look at the social and historical context of refugees’ lives in revolutionary St. Domingue. Although the refugees who fled the revolution were forced to leave much of their property behind in order to rebuild their lives, they brought with them social practices, cultural expressions, and political experiences that would make an indelible mark on Louisiana. First-generation refugees and their descendants from each of…
Into the Twenty-First Century
Chapter 6 examines the contemporary experience of Creoles of African descent. Changing conceptions of blackness during and after the civil rights and Black Power movements challenged Creole identity and made it more difficult for many Creoles of color to see themselves as distinct from other black Americans. These tensions are explored by examining the stories of Creoles of color as gathered from interviews and participant observation with Creole…
Conclusions
The final chapter brings together the threads of the previous discussion to draw lessons from Louisiana’s past that are applicable to the experience of contemporary Latin American and Caribbean immigrants. Just as St. Domingue refugees of color and many of their descendants up through the twenty-first century have experienced a sense of dislocation with respect to the binary racial system long dominant in the United States, today’s immigrants of …
American Routes
American Routes provides a comparative and historical analysis of the migration and integration of white and free black refugees from nineteenth-century St. Domingue/Haiti to Louisiana and follows their descendants over the course of two hundred years. The refugees reinforced Louisiana's triracial system and pushed back Anglo-American racialization by several decades. But over the course of the nineteenth century, the ascendance of the Anglo-Amer…
Race, memory and family history
Attempts to grapple with the complicated tangle of race and memory are more prominent than ever in the public discourse of the United States. In 2006, public intellectual Henry Louis Gates sought to popularize the search for roots and meaning with his project African American Lives, and in 2007 the black and white descendants of the landmark Plessy v. Ferguson case met in New Orleans to discuss the past and present significance of their ancestors…
Internet, Place, and Public Sphere in Diaspora Communities
Parham looks at the ways in which the Internet shapes the public spheres created by diaspora communities in general, and the Haitian diaspora in particular. She contends that most accounts have tended to generate either a positive response-that the Internet will provide ideal conditions for the flourishing of the diasporic public sphere-or a less optimistic response, concerned that the Internet will encourage a superficial engagement with importa…
Diaspora, Community and Communication
With its capacity to link many people interactively across great distances, the Internet seems to be the ultimate tool for dispersed ethnic groups wishing to sustain identity in an 'alien' land and work in solidarity with those facing challenges at 'home'. Some theorists speak of the creation of diasporic public spheres arising from creative use of Internet technologies. Nevertheless, scholars working in this area rarely embed their analyses with…
