An examination of the musical, religious, and political landscape
of black New Orleans before and after Hurricane Katrina, this
revised edition looks at how these factors play out in a new
millennium of global apartheid. Richard Brent Turner explores the
history and contemporary significance of second lines-the group of
dancers who follow the first procession of church and club members,
brass bands, and grand marshals in black New Orleans's jazz street
parades. Here music and religion interplay, and Turner's study
reveals how these identities and traditions from Haiti and West and
Central Africa are reinterpreted. He also describes how second line
participants create their own social space and become proficient in
the arts of political disguise, resistance, and performance.
