Today in New Orleans: 8.1.12 Today, the Pigeon Town Steppers lead an anti-crime march through the Carrollton neighborhood, a curator at the WWII Museum talks Nazi medicine, and Shaggy’s birthday bash brings two handfuls of local musicians to Blue Nile. On this day in history, drummer Raymond Weber of Dirty Dozen Brass Band was born in New Orleans (1966), and the Great Mississippi and Missouri Rivers Flood of 1993 came to a peak. Now back to today:
Pigeon Town Steppers Lead Anti-Crime March (Palmer Park, 6:00pm) After the 610 Stompers led Broadmoor residents in a well-attended anti-crime walk last month, the Carrollton-Riverbend Neighborhood Association called on the Original Pigeon Town Steppers to lead their own. The anti-crime march started at Palmer Park, heads to Dante, Cambronne, up Dublin and back to Palmer Park.
Susan Bachrach Talks Nazi Medicine (National WWII Museum, 6:00pm) Meet the curator of the museum’s special exhibit, Deadly Medicine: Creating the Master Race. The exhibit is about Nazi Germany’s campaign to “cleanse” German society of people viewed as biological threats to the nation’s “health,” resulting in racial health policies and the near annihilation of European Jewry. The exhibit was produced by the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and is sponsored locally by the Tulane School of Medicine.
