Remembering the Second-Largest Creole Community in the US @PBSSoCal

Uploaded February 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Situated along Jefferson Blvd, LA's Little New Orleans served as a hub for those who left Louisiana during the second Great Migration. Today, there are still some traces of this vibrant community, if you know where to look!

Thank you to Harold & Belle's, Mel's Farmhouse and Cheryl Wiltz-Blount for the help with this video and the generous use of your photographs!
