I would like to know moré about our impact on the Economy of Louisiana. Now since the new governor is pushing for stricter policy on immagrants. Also how some of the visa workers in the Bayou State are housed and treated like modern day slaves at the craw fishing and sugar cane farms? It’s not just New Orleans with a history but the whole as a state. From Shreveport down to Forest Hill to Goudeau into New Roads. Latino history is over and still being made.

Take a look at The Spanish Regime in Missouri, Two Vol., Louis Houck (1909). It is a collection of papers and documents relating to Upper Louisiana, from the Archivo General de Indias, Sevilla. Published by R.R. Donnnelley & Sons Companuy , Chicago. As a primary source it might be of interest. Best of luck.
