Description

Introduction In honor of Labor Day 2002, Louisiana Lieutenant Governor Kathleen Blanco made an announcement that was carried by local media throughout the state publicizing the ongoing archeological research at the slave quarters site at Rosedown State Historic Site, a one-time antebellum cotton plantation in St. Francisville, Louisiana. Lt. Governor Blanco's announcement was her way of recognizing the labor of historical enslaved African Americans that helped found and build Louisiana's economy, marking a renewed place for historical enslaved African Americans. The Lt. Governor's announcement was an indication that Louisiana recognizes African American history as central to the state's identity and central to the history of Louisiana's plantation heritage. In this study, I will show how this proclamation is an indication of a significant postmodern transition unfolding in south Louisiana.
