I tried to ignore some of the directly and INDIRECTLY-made comments about how race made the difference in how much nicer of a Mardis Gras this was in contrast to to today's celebration and I must say that now-a-days everything has TONS more culture than back then and it's not just about TITS! Without some FESS in the background, M/G INDIANS making war, and the ZULU (of course), this looks like just another BLAND POMP AND CIRCUMSTANCE ROUTINE! No disrespect to MindsiMedia; good footage.
New Orleans is a southern city. Blacks celebrated in their own neighborhoods. When I grew up there, no Black bands were in the parades and the idea that the Zulus would parade on canal Street was inconceivable. Few white people ever saw the Indians because they didn't wander outside of Black neighborhoods.
@LeeloDaLyricist - Is there any need for your rude remark? I think it is quite remarkable (look the word up) that there are no black people in the film because New Orleans is a city full of black people. Is that easy enough for you to understand? I wasn't offering an opinion as to why there were no black people in the pictures, just an observation. I fail to see how that can be construed as being dumb. Before you ask... I've been to New Orleans (pre Katrina) Try not to be so dumb yourself.

@Mancuso64 It's the segregation. That is why Zulu became such an important parade, although earlier in the morning on Tuesday it was the parade that the African American/Black population was able to enjoy with out fear of being hassled. We have to remember how strongly segregation played a role in society (and unfortunately still does).
When the French founded New Orleans they pronounced Orleans the same way it's pronounced in France. Have we've been pronouncing it wrong since then? That might be why there are 3 or 4 different ways to pronounce it now.
What a terrific video! Loved that no matter what decade, people still come together and have a great time during Carnival. Thanks for taking the time to share the video.
Isnt This video quality way to good for 1941 ?? The people and buildings look from that era but The video quality is remarkably good for that time , no ?
@jasoncarby Well, Gone With The Wind and The Wizard of Oz was made in color in 1939. There's also WWII footage in color and the original footage of the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 was in color
@jasoncarby Film has been high definition since day one, but it has only been until recently that digital technology has been able to extract lots of detail out of film. As a matter of fact, you can get sharp HD footage from film gauges as small as 16mm and 8mm. It has to be stored away from light and kept in a cool place. :D I can't wait to get my 16mm and Super 8 cameras fixed and shoot footage with them. XD
The film used here was taken care of, which is why the quality is so good. :)
Cool video. Thanks for posting. It's always fun to look back. To include my two cents, 1941 was 69 years ago. Things were different. There was always "depravity" and there will always be. But I do think that things have gotten out of hand. Who's to fix it? Our sons and daughters will have to deal with it because WE CAN'T. It's just the way of the world. Kids do wilder "mischief" now than 69 years ago. They used to play with a ring and a stick; now, can't live withouth their Nintendo.

Well dressed civilized people enjoying themselves. What happened? This is another video from the past that depicts a stark contrast to the present illustrating keenly just how far into the bowels of depravity society has fallen.Clean well dressed civilized people enjoying themselves. What a concept. What happened? This is another video from the past that depicts a stark contrast to the present illustrating keenly just how far into the bowels of depravity society has fallen.
Well now it all depends on what the camera is pointed at. I could go out today and find large crowds of well dressed people enjoying themselves. Just as I'm sure that in 1941 there were plenty of scenes of open depravity going on but not so many cameras around to record the moment.
On the surface what you say makes sense. However it i very wrong, you would have a real hunt on your hands back in the 40's as the depravity you probably like was not tolerated by the general society. You would have to go into the seediest of places and i am sure you could find some. In terms of general society you would be very alone...
There's all kinds of depravity always has and always will be. There's the depravity that individuals dwell in and you are uncomfortable with public diplays of individual depravity. Then there is the institutional depravity that your type is always willing to ignore or even dwell in your selves. In 1941 you still had in America the land of freedom and equality institutionalized racisim. against black people, women & gays. You fake Christians are always to willing to ignore this kind of depravity.
Now I don't know about you but all I know of what real life was like in the 1940's is from what I've read and heard because I wasn't alive. I'm willing to bet you weren't either. But I do know this much people are as depraved today as they were in the 1950's that's how far back I go. It's a lot lot more in the open a less repressed as it was back then. The real depravity we should ALL be worried about is in our governments and institutions that control our finance. That's depravity. True enough?
Reverendjim was a reference from the old sitcom Taxi. I agree with you more than you will ever know to the regard of corporate graft, greed and lobbying. However I am against the left too. No problem with gay people at all, the women thing has gone too far, its a joke now and as far as the black situation go's all i can say is I do not draw a distinction, we are all the same. However, I think we need to a dose of old fashion public morality; human depravity belongs back in the closet.

I'm sure the producers of this film were more interested in presenting the more wholesome aspects of the Mardi Gras celebration. The idea that in 1941 there were no streets full of drunks, perverts and sleazy bums is silly. In those days facts like that were obscured and not exploited. Also due to the vast explosion of media capabilities in the past 60 years there are just more points of view available to people nowadays.

Isn't that the truth. I can't read these post without feeling like this country is raising a generation of imbeciles. It's really depressing we could sink to this level of discourse this quickly. Does anyone else find this scary?
It's a sad fact of life that we live on a planet composed of highly evolved people who through self discipline try to raise themselves up.And lazy people who take comfort in debasement and corruption. They respond to fear and anger and are always looking for someone else to blame for their lot. More sad than scary.
saw no cross - and even if there WAS a cross you're just speculating. Cut out the anti-white commentary. Blacks were only 9% of the entire population back then. Public celebrations weren't catered to them like today.
That' your opinion; of course Juneteenth, Black History Month, Martin Luther King Jr Holiday, and various Afro-" " festivals across the country probably in your locality as well as mine do not cater to specific groups...well again that' your opinion and it i mine that you are willingly ignorant not to notice.
i don't know about too much of where and how the human beings decended from, but if you scroll the movie to about 4:44, the mexican guy on the left either has a cigar or a real fat ganja blunt that he is about to smoke
Everyone always NEEDS to feel like the 1 and ONLY victim. Fucking lame =( Discrimination has been and ALWAYS be a major part of society. Not just race/sex/Financial. Everyone has to realize that most "IMPORTANT" arguments come up to blind us from what the fuck is going on. Think of the bigger picture. We only know what we ourselves are doing, we have been tricked into thinking we know more than that by fucktards that simply "Think" they know more.
No,you'll just get your ass beat for thinking that becuase you're white, you can just disrespect a black person and treat them like shit, you racist motherfucker---and you will have deserved it---ha ha motherfucking ha!
I mean, white folks got to do whatever the fuck they wanted to black people, including kill them and get away with for the first 350 years we were brought here, so karma's a bitch if you want to start some shit in that direction.
You're making black people look like animals. All right, so some white guy said something nasty to you. Be a fucking man and disregard it.
What, he hurt your feelings? Shit man, did you have to piss in a blacks-only toilet? Go to a second-rate blacks-only school? Been kicked from a library because blacks weren't allowed? No? Shut the hell up, then.
Black people won their rights through peaceful methods. Violence will do nothing for you but make you look like an ignorant child.
Oh,fuck you,N&C---all that bullshit in the media about people supposedly rioting turned out to be just that--total and complete bullshit--it was just what they called urban rumors. And ANYBODY who dosen't have access to fresh bath water for 5 days damn days is gonna stink,you fukcing idiot! Why the fuck are you acting like Katrina was a white/black thing? EVERYBODY down there suffered because of it, so how dare you say some nasty bullshit like that,as the white people were above the black folks
they are throwing beads...watch again. you can see them untangling them at 3:54 and not just laving them but downright chunking those bad boys to the way back section...
I myself being korean prefer not to use the race card but still whites make up the majority of the population. The affirmitive action I believe is flawed and yes there are some minorities who use it for their advantage but beyond that it is a reminder that others who are different still have a voice. But, only the end result really matters. If we were to get rid of affirmitive action would it backfire or give everyone opportunites? That is the question.

Statelybird3 you're an absolute illiterate who doesn't even understand what evacuation orders mean. The Friday before the Monday when the hurricane hit, the President got on t.v. and told everyone to leave New Orleans, that the damage would be catastrophic. The mayor of New Orleans , Ray Nagin , told them to leave as well, but as a local leader , did nothing to move the hundreds of school and city buses into the poor areas to get the poor people out. Ray Nagin was reelected because he was black.
Oh, and I guess white leaders are never re-elected because they're white either. Honey, I am not illerate, and I know what the fuck evacuation orders mean. The fact remains that NOBODY expected the damn levees to break, and I've read things saying that every time NO was evacuated and people left, nothing major ever happened, so they got tired of leaving and decided to ride it out--just like the people in Florida AND Oklahoma do every damn year, but no one calls THEM stupid for doing that.
Oh really? How the hell do you explain those poor white folks in the Appalachian mountains that ABC just did a special on? I don't see nobody saying that they are lazy and stupid for being poor and white and that they just ought to move the hell out of the mountains. So how the fuck do you explain them, you racist bitch ass piece of shit? There are black teachers and cops where I live, you know-nothing asshole. Affirmative action dosen't even exist anymore--it was outlawed 2 years ago.
good affirmative action was a useless program anyway. people of minority races will get a job as long as they can do it "decent" while a white man aplying for the same job will be turned away because the company is afraid to turn away the minority and be called racist. when really all they want is the best worker.
No, affirmative action was needed back in its day because there were a hell a lot of jobs a black person would NOT be hired for, no matter how qualified they were. They sure as hell could not become CEOS of any corporation,that's for damn sure. AA was created to stop that racist discrimination, which was going on in this country UNTIL the 1960's---and it still goes on,it's just harder to detect. Funny how it never seems to occur to people that maybe a white person ain't qualified for a job.
affirmative action was simply implemented to "even the playing field".It gave QUALIFIED ppl who actually have done their footwork and paid their dues opportunity they would not normally have due to institutional, overt disadvantages or involuntary discrimination.Don't pretend racism ,sexism,ageism has not and does not exist.Not to say everything boils down to those "isms" but c'mon the reality is some ppl simply discriminate for those shallow reasons
Let's assume most white people discriminate. So we assume this puts minorities at a competitive disadvantage. Now we "level the playing field" with affirmative action. But, not every whitey discriminates, though affirmative action would clearly discriminate against them. Two wrongs, no right. No one chose to enter this world and I refuse to be held accountable for things that happened before my existence. Pride in things you do not choose is wrong. Accepting this is the only cure to said "isms"
Look,ignorant-ass bitch---a lot of people didn't leave NO because they're BEEN through a thousand other hurricanes and left, and NOTHING ever happened to the city. The last time the levees broke in NO was in 1927----so NOBODY expected the dams levees to break simply because it hadn't HAPPENED in so damn LONG, you fucking idiot.
How come NOBODY ever calls those white people in Florida stupid for staying behind when every damn time a hurricane hits the coast? And they do it EVERY DAMN year!
I'd like to be able to travel back in time just to tell those tell those racist old pieces-o-segregationist-shit that, not only will black men marry white women in the future, but that one of them will in so doing will sire a President.
amazing how white it is.................I guarantee it was a much better time back then you probably didn't have to worry about getting pissed on or stabbed by a random spook.
Okay, everyone... if you loved Twilight, read this (see vid) THE WITCH AND THE DEVIL'S SON. Crack the code and win! (more to come... see 2nd vid to find secrets.)
It's amazing to see so much misdirected anger expressed. The cultural decline in America isn't the fault of the gays or the blacks or any of the other bullcrap some of you all are so bent out of shape about. Go out and educate yourself about what's really going on and stop looking at people who are differnet from you. and blaming them. And hey remeber what the video is about. LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL. Laissez les bon temps roulez !!
I'm feeling like New Orleans is a liberal city surrounded amongst conservative lands? I don't get why people have to be so offensive to gays or any one different. Where has respect run off to?

Isn't that the truth. I can't read these post without feeling like this country is raising a generation of imbeciles. It's really depressing we could sink to this level of discourse this quickly. Does anyone else find this scary?

It's a sad fact of life that we live on a planet composed of highly evolved people who through self discipline try to raise themselves up.And lazy people who take comfort in debasement and corruption. They respond to fear and anger and are always looking for someone else to blame for their lot. More sad than scary.

saw no cross - and even if there WAS a cross you're just speculating. Cut out the anti-white commentary. Blacks were only 9% of the entire population back then. Public celebrations weren't catered to them like today.

"Catered"??? Nothing is "catered" to anyone today. But yes, everyone is able to participate and enjoy the celebrations. As they should be.

That' your opinion; of course Juneteenth, Black History Month, Martin Luther King Jr Holiday, and various Afro-" " festivals across the country probably in your locality as well as mine do not cater to specific groups...well again that' your opinion and it i mine that you are willingly ignorant not to notice.

Everyone always NEEDS to feel like the 1 and ONLY victim. Fucking lame =( Discrimination has been and ALWAYS be a major part of society. Not just race/sex/Financial. Everyone has to realize that most "IMPORTANT" arguments come up to blind us from what the fuck is going on. Think of the bigger picture. We only know what we ourselves are doing, we have been tricked into thinking we know more than that by fucktards that simply "Think" they know more.

No,you'll just get your ass beat for thinking that becuase you're white, you can just disrespect a black person and treat them like shit, you racist motherfucker---and you will have deserved it---ha ha motherfucking ha!
I mean, white folks got to do whatever the fuck they wanted to black people, including kill them and get away with for the first 350 years we were brought here, so karma's a bitch if you want to start some shit in that direction.

I myself being korean prefer not to use the race card but still whites make up the majority of the population. The affirmitive action I believe is flawed and yes there are some minorities who use it for their advantage but beyond that it is a reminder that others who are different still have a voice. But, only the end result really matters. If we were to get rid of affirmitive action would it backfire or give everyone opportunites? That is the question.

Statelybird3 you're an absolute illiterate who doesn't even understand what evacuation orders mean. The Friday before the Monday when the hurricane hit, the President got on t.v. and told everyone to leave New Orleans, that the damage would be catastrophic. The mayor of New Orleans , Ray Nagin , told them to leave as well, but as a local leader , did nothing to move the hundreds of school and city buses into the poor areas to get the poor people out. Ray Nagin was reelected because he was black.
havaneros 2 years ago
Oh, and I guess white leaders are never re-elected because they're white either. Honey, I am not illerate, and I know what the fuck evacuation orders mean. The fact remains that NOBODY expected the damn levees to break, and I've read things saying that every time NO was evacuated and people left, nothing major ever happened, so they got tired of leaving and decided to ride it out--just like the people in Florida AND Oklahoma do every damn year, but no one calls THEM stupid for doing that.

Oh really? How the hell do you explain those poor white folks in the Appalachian mountains that ABC just did a special on? I don't see nobody saying that they are lazy and stupid for being poor and white and that they just ought to move the hell out of the mountains. So how the fuck do you explain them, you racist bitch ass piece of shit? There are black teachers and cops where I live, you know-nothing asshole. Affirmative action dosen't even exist anymore--it was outlawed 2 years ago.
statelybird3 2 years ago
good affirmative action was a useless program anyway. people of minority races will get a job as long as they can do it "decent" while a white man aplying for the same job will be turned away because the company is afraid to turn away the minority and be called racist. when really all they want is the best worker.
affirmative action is a joke.
supersteubie 2 years ago
No, affirmative action was needed back in its day because there were a hell a lot of jobs a black person would NOT be hired for, no matter how qualified they were. They sure as hell could not become CEOS of any corporation,that's for damn sure. AA was created to stop that racist discrimination, which was going on in this country UNTIL the 1960's---and it still goes on,it's just harder to detect. Funny how it never seems to occur to people that maybe a white person ain't qualified for a job.
statelybird3 2 years ago
affirmative action was simply implemented to "even the playing field".It gave QUALIFIED ppl who actually have done their footwork and paid their dues opportunity they would not normally have due to institutional, overt disadvantages or involuntary discrimination.Don't pretend racism ,sexism,ageism has not and does not exist.Not to say everything boils down to those "isms" but c'mon the reality is some ppl simply discriminate for those shallow reasons
Jerzeegeemoney 2 years ago
Let's assume most white people discriminate. So we assume this puts minorities at a competitive disadvantage. Now we "level the playing field" with affirmative action. But, not every whitey discriminates, though affirmative action would clearly discriminate against them. Two wrongs, no right. No one chose to enter this world and I refuse to be held accountable for things that happened before my existence. Pride in things you do not choose is wrong. Accepting this is the only cure to said "isms"
ChevyLaxMan 2 years ago
Look,ignorant-ass bitch---a lot of people didn't leave NO because they're BEEN through a thousand other hurricanes and left, and NOTHING ever happened to the city. The last time the levees broke in NO was in 1927----so NOBODY expected the dams levees to break simply because it hadn't HAPPENED in so damn LONG, you fucking idiot.
How come NOBODY ever calls those white people in Florida stupid for staying behind when every damn time a hurricane hits the coast? And they do it EVERY DAMN year!
