A developing tropical disturbance in the Caribbean is showing increasing potential to enter the eastern Gulf of Mexico, intensify, and impact areas along the Gulf Coast, likely between Florida and Louisiana. If the system gains a name, it will be designated Tropical Storm Debby. This system has the potential to bring significant rainfall to the eastern Gulf Coast, and depending on its strength, could also generate hazardous winds and a dangerous storm surge.

The 1970s was a particularly good decade for gangster movies because it saw the release of Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather and The Godfather: Part II alone; two undoubtedly great films about organized crime. Then, in the 1990s, Martin Scorsese made boundary-pushing classics like Goodfellas and Casino. Though both Coppola and Scorsese stayed away from the genre (more or less) in the 1980s, there were thankfully other filmmakers around to pick up the slack, so to speak.

The Lens

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.
