Will Sutton: The 19 of New Orleans weren't the first or last mistreated Black people I walked along the sidewalk beyond the library to the Lawless Chapel on the Dillard University campus and paused when I saw a single white hearse. One hearse for 19 people. One hearse for what's left ...

THE NINETEEN were recognized, remembered and memorialized at a Dillard homegoing service that was like no other I’ve attended. See the video. Though it was a beautiful event, it made me sad. Read my take at @nolanews.bsky.social, NOLA.com. #DU #FairDillard #UNO #The19 @neworleans.bsky.social
