About this listen

In this special episode, we sit down with retired Judge Anthony Russo of New Orleans — a proud Italian American and one of the co-founders of the Italian American St. Joseph Society. Judge Russo shares the story behind the beloved St. Joseph Parade, an annual tradition that brings the sights, sounds, and spirit of Sicily to the streets of New Orleans every St. Joseph’s Day. From its humble beginnings to becoming one of the city’s most anticipated cultural celebrations, Judge Russo reflects on the community, heritage, and joy that keep this parade marching year after year.
