This is a great documentary. I was born in the 7th Ward, St. Bernard Project on Gibson Court. Mia speaks truth about a Village. Family and neighbors stuck together. I really miss the old New Orleans. Keep up the good work. Very impressive!
Too many (good!) memories when I hear Gibson Court. My best friend (still in contact 30+ years later) lived on Gibson. My close cousins lived on Hamburg right around the corner
I am a Baton Rouge native that loves New Orleans history, culture, and architecture. I always say my soul is at such peace in NOLA. I have so much appreciation for this video and I've definitely subscribed to this channel. Thanks for the knowledge, quality, and effort to create such a masterpiece. ❤
Second Comment: Mannie Fresh defintley does not recieve enough credit or recognition for his contribution for literally masterminding the sound of Cash Money and hip hop outta NOLA. He has to be the sickest on an 808 drum machine. Hell, his intros on CMR albums used to be ridiculous.
I was born in Charity Hospital spent the first 25 years of my life in New Orleans before i start traveling around to different states and countries Im 43 now and i can truly say The N.O. is was of the most uniquely made cities on earth
@@smitrj1916 I got love for the east Bank, but the Westbank is the best bank lol. I miss everything and everybody. Shit is never gonna be like pre Katrina New Orleans.
I'm glad I came across this. I'm from New Orleans, but sometimes I feel like tourist in the city. Some places I went to, and some I have little knowledge on. It's good to know, though.
I lived in the 7th ward off of paris ave I lived on the opposite side of the street from the St. Bernard Project...I lived on Havana St mixed neighborhood of wealthy people..yes DILLIARD UNIVERSITY Gentilly...walking distance from my home on Havana St. this is amazing...💙💙💙💙🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I’m from providence Ri but got sent to live wit my grandparents in 98 right on Paris ave I ran thru da St. Bernard n went to Kennedy til I came back north
Very good documentary. I remember when they tore down the St thomas and a lot of the locals moved in the St Bernard. Shit got real hectic on Senate st. I would love to see a 10th and 15th ward documentary that would be dope!!
Thank you for presenting so many great memories. I lived a few blocks from the St Bernard projects many years. The Bynum brothers had a grocery and drug store across from the projects. It was a very important shop where we could get our groceries and prescriptions. The Circle Food store was a fairly long bus ride away but we went there all the time too, when time allowed. Unfortunately all that was destroyed with Katrina. Also all the schools I went to like Phillips Elem and Phillips Junior High were destroyed. It would be great if you could include videos or pictures of all this as well. It seems so much is gone forever.
Bynum was the store,when I went to Phillips elementary that was my first stop after school dam near every day, 2 dollars was enough for a Rock in Roll and a pop Rouge 🤣🤣🤣
In all schools across the country when the arts programs died so did the dreams and aspirations of many children died as well. I always felt that was a huge mistake not all students wanted or were naturally suited for academic studies. I wonder how many musicians,singers, painters, sculptors and the like were lost.
I had searched up a video about the seventh Ward, because I had heard about some gang activity that I was interested in learning more about, and then I came upon this video. This is super interesting and very well done. Right on for this bro thank you

Can u also make a lil video about the Creoles doing the paper bag test, people was so rude back then 🙄😑. That was definitely a 7th Ward thing. Autocraft club was one of the ones that did the brown paperbag test thing
Yes, talk about that color struck community that would not serve you if you were dark skinned. Yes talk about that paper bag, manila eveloped, no darker than tan rice. Talk about that CATHOLIC church over by CONGO SQUARE THAT PICKED THE SLAVE WOMEN OFF THE AUCTION BLOCK. TO RUN A PRIVATE BORDELLO FOR THE FRENCHMEN THAT DIDN'T WANT TO BE SEEN IN THE RED LIGHT DISTRICT AND THE CATHOLIC GOT THE MONEY. THAT IS THE AREA IN FRONT OF THE OLD CONVENT. THEY CALL IT THE ARTIST MARKET NOW.
Let’s keep it real homie, creoles were too light too be black and too dark to be white. Nobody excepted us, n dat shit is still going on today and y’all know it
@@eazymoney2789 Creoles are like Latinos. They are both Catholics, they can both be any race (black, white or mixed.) Most Creoles these days are mixed. That's why all Creoles look any kind of way. Some look white, some look black, and others look in between 💯 it's the same way with Latinos. Especially the Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, etc.
Thanks so much for this I’m buying property in the 7th ward & this confirmed why the 7th ward picked me !!! I’m so excited for this new journey of course I’m from Louisiana & knows all about that Nola but to own Real Estate there is beyond my expectations…
*Dillard University Alum here. Gentilly to NOLA East.* From Liberty Bank (still here) to THE (Schwegmann’s... I can’t recall) grocery to the PEACHES 🍑 record store on Gentilly. *All of NO LIMIT would randomly be at Peaches. Now it makes sense why MiaX was present.*
Very well put together! I visit NOLA once a year. I have never been to the 7th ward tho. This video has definently piqued my interests in learning more of the 7th wards history for sure. Great job!!!
I would love to see how deep u can dive into the powerful Creole families of the 7th Ward/ Sugarhill..... Morials, Rochons, Bartholamew, Boudreaux, etc
3 ปีที่แล้ว
Good luck. Most of those OG Creole fams got stuck in the PC or politically correct ways of referring to themselves as black, even though many looked damn near white. Lol
I'm from the 9th ward but I lived right across the street from Dillard. Dime pieces all over the area, beautiful black, caramel, light skin sisters with big brains and big booties. This was around the same year when Twista came out with that overnight celebrity. Circa, 2003 Mardi Gras time.
I'm a 49 year old white dude...born in New Orleans, but raised on the Westbank ...And you ALWAYS learn stuff about my City that you NEVER KNEW !!!.. SO UNIQUE !!!.. We have our issues yeah ...!!!.. But its a city like NO OTHER and I love my Black brothers and sisters !!.. I grew up in " the hood " myself and I understand and witnessed Racism all my life !!.. almost got caught up in it myself !!!.. BUT GOD SHOWED ME QUICK to NOT LET people and ESPECIALLY THE MEDIA, HOLLYWOOD...ETC... influence me !!!
Great Documentary! Even though you missed McD35 the first high school for African Americans in New Orleans... Nevertheless, the content was phenomenal!
I was looking for McDonogh 35 who produced a ton of influential African American leaders. But nevertheless it was a very inspirational documentary about a rich culture that will continue to have its distinct presence in America!
Grew up in the 7th Ward and graduated from McDonogh #35(Roneagles!🙂) That changed my life for the best. I became a "nerd with a purpose" and they steered my way to college. I got a scholarship to college in Mississippi (USM in Hattiesburg) and they were always amazed when I mentioned that my school was an all black "magnet" school with a college prep curriculum. They looked at me like I was an alien😄 I'll never forget that my life in the 7th prepared me for life!

You done good. Miss the 7th. Miss the old restaurants from the 70's thru the 90's. Really a bunch of sad stories for us losing so much. If you see Fred tell him Horace batiste still kicking and said hello. I worked on the design of many buildings in the 7th including Treme Community Center and the Claiborne Study back in the 70's. Look you take care stand straight what you are doing is very important.
My Grandpa own the only laundry mat in the St. Bernard for years and Dillar Unv is in Voscoville and dont forget about my Homie Dj Augustine. Great Content !
Dope documentary. Salute from the Carolinas. I love Louisiana history. Some what similar to the Gullah geechie speaking people of South Carolina/Georgia
I love how my grandma tells me how it was growing up in the 40’s and 50’s in the 7th she told me how her grandmother was an Orphan and was raised by the nuns she let me know how it was before the bridges she said the same thing Mia said everyone was family
My step dad is from NOLA & I love that culture, the stories and tales so much 😩 when my stepdad would tell stories about how childhood & early life was i would be like wow I love the ghetto it sounds so fun 😂😂 he still goes back often and I have a sister out there but I haven’t been in so long I miss it. Omg the women just started to talk and I got tears in my eyes. She sound like my family down there. She so right New Orleans is so big on respecting adults and those who psssed
Dope documentary. My only gripe is it did'nt have any mentions of the rapper who made the Hard Head name famous. His name is Mc L aka the Blackrobinhood.
Don’t think we ever gonna see the light of heaven dawg, because we down here stuck in 187thWard. We survive through it all n, still we be ballin, smokin at Stallings, 7thWard New Orleans ~MC L

I don’t believe Gregory D from the 7th, the majority of the Ninja Crew is from the 17th , Hollygrove to be exact.

I really appreciate this work. I love history and hate Injustice. This is very well done ..lifts the culture of diversity that once was and has the potential to reactivate the self respect necessary to build individual and community life for a great people. God bless you in your efforts. Jesus is light and life.
Very well done documentary! Velena C. Jones should have been mentioned and the Mackie family was my next door neighbor's growing up in Mirabeau Gardens.
You make great videos. Informational and great commentary, Interviews and images. Thanks
