581. Matthew Teutsch, part 2
581. Part 2 of our conversation with Matthew
Teutsch about his article, "Blood in the Pool: The 1868 Bossier Massacre." "Violent, racist attacks didn’t just occur in Bossier. They
occurred across the Red River in Caddo Parish and all throughout
the Red River Valley. Gilles Vandal notes that during
Reconstruction 45% of the murders in Louisiana were concentrated
in the northwestern part of the state. Caddo accounted for 16%
of the homicides even though it only accounted for 3% of the
state’s population. People may have tried to cleanse the soil of
the blood, but the blood remains deep within the earth."
"Matthew Teutsch is the Director of the Lillian E. Smith Center
at Piedmont College. He maintains Interminable
Rambling, a blog on literature, culture, and
pedagogy, and has published articles and book reviews in
various venues including Lear, Melus, Mississippi
Quarterly, African American Review and Callaloo.
His research focus is African American, Southern, and Nineteenth
Century American literature. He is the editor of Rediscovering
Frank Yerby: Critical Essays (UPM 2020), and his current
project examines Christopher Priest’s run on Black Panther.

The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it
as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in
print for the first time in 220 years. Order your copy today!
War' shootout takes place near DeRidder, 3 killed, 37 wounded.
1939. Beginning in the mid-1930s, and for several years after,
the Recreation Project of the WPA sponsored the "Summer
Showers" program in conjunction with the New Orleans Fire
Department. Several days a week throughout the summer, firemen
closed off a street, opened the hydrants and attached special
nozzles to their hoses so the children of New Orleans could
frolick and beat the heat
