t gets even more interesting, his mother's family came from NOLA and moved to Chicago around 1910 where they could pass as white.
You could go to the 7th ward right now and see this dynamic.. not the passing part but if you didn’t know some of them personally you could see how they could be mistaken for white

I read this interesting book about a NY Times writer from the 50s and 60s, whose family was from the Treme/7th Ward area and basically did the same thing as this pope's family.
His daughter sort of wrote it as a 'Holy shite, we're black!' revelation memoir, having grown up in Northeast white society circles her whole life.

I grew up on the Cane River as a child, there was a prominent planter family that were light skinned and when ready for college the kids all went to Southern Cal, got a degree and lived as whites in Cali. Not 1910, 70s and 80s..

It's sort of great. They back doored a black dude into the papacy through old New Orleans black Creole society.
And their home was even torn down for the Claiborne overpass.

Yeah, the whole "revelation" aspect of it was quite goofy. It was still sort of interesting on the whole sociological perspective of the black/sort-of-black New Orleans creole phenomenon.

PGT Beauregard was called “little black boy” at West Point
Yet he was a general for the confederacy
And then also black people and white liberals tore down his statue for racism

According to genealogists at the @visit_hnoc, Pope Leo XIV has New Orleans ties. Records show his maternal grandparents were married and lived in the 7th Ward.
