not-so-local new orleans social media grifter JD Carrere posted a video "explaining" how the founder allegedly didn't use funds properly. nola reddit is saying it's a shady organization but some are saying the founder is a good guy (certainly possible) and JD is a clown (100% true).

he's such a loser. if you can't make it in new orleans, good luck anywhere else.

dude lived in slidell before moving to california and can't stop posting about new orleans, its white transplants, and every new orleans black person with any money/status who disagrees with him on any issue.

Not sure why we can’t just have a parade and not need to turn it into more … gotta scam people I guess. The cult mentality I assume. Have members/followers: need more power

This sounds terrible. Who would ever want to be a part of this:

They think because they hang out on St. Claude Avenue that they KNOW New Orleans and are keepers of the traditions. Hipster carpetbaggers.

He posts some tax records and an anonymous DM and acts like he Lee Zurik. I am sure there will be a post from him about being discussed on a "racist alt right message board".

It’s very interesting how these White hipster Bywater/Marigny transplants come to New Orleans from all over the country & seem to appoint themselves to be the epicenter of New Orleans culture/cool & still don’t understand that the Black locals absolutely hate them for “gentrification” of “their” neighborhoods. Yet they all vote exactly the same.

The KoRB guy is probably shady as hell and JD is a mostly dishonest grifter.


frick JD but it’s weird as hell this dude comes to nola and starts a nonprofit to help and promote and preserve the “local culture and elders” almost immediately of moving to nola.


To me it seems pretty obvious this white savior knew exactly what he was doing and who he was going to “help” before he even got to nola.


That being said, JD is dishonest as frick and seems to always assume the worst about people and any tidbit or anecdote that even remotely supports his preconceived notions is treated as irrefutable stone cold fact. All the while anyone saying anything that goes against his preconceived notions are either paid shills or sinister oppressors doing anything they can to keep the black man down.



I also love when he quits social media with some whiny bitch post about how he is disrespected and shite only to resurface like a day or two later. Dude can’t even make it 48 hours and when he comes back he acts like it never even happened lmao.

that video of byron cole cursing out the white lady who pulled up her dress is a great illustration of this.

it's a funny too because the OT had no clue what to make of it. on one hand, the dude is a loud POS who hates whitey... but he wasn't wrong to be mad/annoyed and he was mad/annoyed with some of the OT's least favorite people .

This and it's terrible. They took a culture they saw and really liked and painted a caricature of it and now prop that up as who we are. Over the years I've seen frenchmen turn unrecognizable. It was a celebration of all things local music...it's now full off odd street performers, a really fricking strange art gallery, and people who look a step above gutter punks who think it's all "SOO NOLA!!!"

His poor wife lol.


She has to support a family of 4 or 5 while her husband is nothing more than a social media troll who spends his day flaming IG and reddit.

As a north la poster that doesn’t understand all references in threads about New Orleans what is the context of “Bywater”. I’ve seen the word used multiple times. Is it a location in New Orleans?

It’s a neighborhood in New Orleans.

Lots of “hipster” white people live and hang out there.
