Oh, wow! Really happy you got to see this. It's an amazing and not well known history.

Artist's Description

The Black Indian Parade in New Orleans. (Also called Mardi Gras Indian Parade.) It is a colorful tradition that dates back to the days of Slavery.
There is a structure & hierarchy to the Tribes. They include the Chief, Flag Boy, Spy Boys, Call Boys, Second-liners, and so on. Here we see a Flag Boy. He carries the Flag Banner of the Tribe, and he uses it to signal the other tribe members, as well as to identify the Tribe from a distance to other rival or friendly Tribes who may be nearby..
Because of these structures within the Tribe this Tradition went virtually unknown outside the poor, black communities in New Orleans until the 1970's.

Freedom, Travel, and experiencing the Sacred are recurring themes that I like to explore in my photographic work. My goal with each photograph is to take you...
