As we approach the new year, we are looking back on some of our favorite stories from 2022. Today on Louisiana Considered, we encore a conversation with historian Dr. Laura D. Kelley. She walks us through the history of immigration in Louisiana and tells us how different communities have helped shape our state today. 

Today’s episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Karl Lengel. Our managing producer is Alana Schreiber and our digital editor is Katelyn Umholtz. Our engineers are Garrett Pittman, Aubry Procell, and Thomas Walsh.
