Since becoming a state in 1812, Louisiana has participated in America’s bold experiment with democracy. The Historic New Orleans Collection will explore how the democratic system has functioned in Louisiana, and how key events have influenced our current political environment, at the 2023 History Symposium April 1 at Hotel Monteleone.
Moderator Dr. Pearson Cross and a vibrant slate of speakers will address topics ranging from the drafting of the first constitution and the politics of enslavement to the women’s suffrage movement in New Orleans and how Louisiana’s environment impacts public policy.
