Houma has/had a pretty large Italian influence as well.

We hear about Italians in NOLA all the time, what are you talking about?
My mom grew up down the street from Silver Dollar Sam. Carlos Marcello was very generous. St Joseph Altars at almost every Catholic Church. What rock do you live under?

Where my great grandparents made their home
I have a bed sheet my great grandma made using flour sacks
One of the things I miss most about my Grandpa were his stories about growing up out there

The Independence Sicilian Festival was last weekend. I think it was kind of renewed with interest in the Sicilian heritage part in the last 10-15 years. Younger generations have interest in the history, after older generations were mostly focused on assimilation and economic mobility.
