Rural Roots Of Jazz
The River Road African American Museum is missing all of our wonderful visitors and friends. So we’ve decided to the bring the RRAAM to you virtually! Our newest exhibit is the Rural Roots of Jazz, and explores all the talented musicians that came from the River Parishes and the Donaldsonville area.
Rural Roots Of Music
We dedicate this to all of the mothers and grandmothers who combed our hair and pressed our dresses, shirts and pants to make sure we made it to church and Sunday School on time.
Special thanks to Pastor Marshall Cooper for playing the saxophone and sharing his family history from the sugarcane fields of St. James Parish.
