About this listen

Plaçage was a significant part of New Orleans' history and lore and was often depicted in artwork, films, and articles. However, some say that the common understanding of plaçage is a myth. The Haitian Revolution led to thousands of Haitian refugees fleeing to New Orleans in the early 1800s, and some say that this created a reputation for the city.
