I'm friends with some of his great grand children.

The property they own down there is pretty badass. I think his body is on the property entombed as well.

Like 70 or so pages detailing what a panel of experts thinks needs to happen for st. Bernard to compete with st. Charles and st. Tammany for middle class families choosing where to live

Study up on your history, brah!

Judge Perez Drive is no longer named after Leander...

quote:
Judge Perez Drive is a major, four-lane thoroughfare located in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana. The road was originally named Goodchildren Drive, but was renamed in 1972 for former political boss of St. Bernard and Plaquemines Parishes, Judge Leander Perez (died 1969). However, in the late 1990s, St. Bernard officials chose to distance themselves from Leander Perez's segregationist legacy, and instead dedicated Judge Perez Drive to the memory of Melvyn Perez, a long-time judge in St. Bernard—thus distancing the Parish from Leander Perez's controversial legacy without the expense of changing the signs labeled "Judge Perez Drive".



Funny thing is, MLK was one of the names that was proposed if they would have renamed it anything else...

That wouldn't have flown in Da Parish back in them days... Maybe now, but not back then.


Should just be called Claiborne or Jefferson Highway.

Interesting how it's the same road, yet every parish has a different name for it.

I'll agree with Leander Perez being a complete piece of crap.

Change the street name because he was a segregationist, to one named after a slave owner
