Glad to see this video on there, but there are a few factual errors in the narratiion. Tootie died June 27, 2005, so he hadn't been dead even a year at the time of this St. Joseph's night. The woman who is speaking is not Denise, Tootie's daughter, but Sabrina, Darryl Montana's wife.
I can't believe this didn't generate more interest. Unfortunately people who don't know much about New Orleans don't know anything about Mardi Gras Indians. This is a great introduction to anyone who doesn't.

Thanks for posting this video. I'm relieved to know that this vibrant culture lives on inspite of Hurricane Katrina, Hurricane Rita, and more.
