And all of our popular cultures come out of this time in New Orleans where Black people and white people and indigenous people and the Spanish and all these people were free. And it was short-lived.

I think he is referring to New Orleans in the late colonial period when there were in fact European people, mixed race people and free people of color. What he neglected to mention is that many of the mixed race people and free people of color were slave owners. A few even owned plantations. History and facts get really messy sometimes.
