This book joins the post-Katrina conversation about New Orleans and its changing cultural scene. Through photographs and the written word, Watts and Porter pay homage to the city (and region) and its residents, map recent and often contradictory social and cultural transformations, and seek to counter inadequate (and often pejorative accounts) of people and place. Focusing, for the most part, on African American New Orleans, New Orleans Suite is a story about how bad things have happened to people in both the long and short run, how they have persevered by drawing upon and transforming their cultural practices, and what they can teach us about citizenship, politics, and other issues
