Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

The Ku Klux Klan and a house of ill repute? How much wilder can it get than that? My new column talks about the wild and troubling days of my old home in Concordia Parish. It’s up now, so take a look.  Just click here

Below is a photo of the great Haney’s music hall in Ferriday burning to the ground about the time I arrived to practice law in Ferriday. The rumor was that the Klan burned it down because whites were slipping in to enjoy the music.

And if you want to listen to you a really racist speech, look at the new video up of comments by Rev. Michael Pfleger, a white Obama supporter. His chilling words point out how deeply the racial divide still is throughout this country. And take a listen to the musician that brought me to rock ‘n roll. Bo Diddley died a few days ago. Take a listen to his classic, “I “˜m Sorry” on our jukebox on the left.
