10am-2pm | On November 14, New Orleans comes together for a citywide day of commemoration: New Orleans Four Day, honoring the Reckoning & Remembrance of Captain André Cailloux and the freedom fighters of the New Orleans and Louisiana resistance movement. 

Reckoning and Remembrance is a partnership between the André Cailloux Center and the Krewe of Red Beans, together marking a rare convergence of history: the 66th anniversary of the New Orleans Four, the 130th anniversary of Plessy v. Ferguson, the centennial of Carter G. Woodson's Negro History Week, the 163rd commemoration of Captain André Cailloux, and America's 250th. One continuing freedom story, walked together by elders, young people, culture bearers, and neighbors. 

The day opens at Beanlandia with music and the announcement of muralists Annie Moran and Tenielle Prosper, as the Louisiana Native Guard mural rises on Bayou Road. The procession begins at 11am. When we arrive at the André Cailloux Center (2541 Bayou Road), we welcome everyone home with remarks from community and civic leaders, live performance, refreshments, and the dedication and blessing of the building. Then a commemorative tour of We've Got a Story to Tell, limited seats on our ride to the Algiers Ancestors Festival, and that night, ACC Homecoming: An A.J. Haynes and Friends Benefit Concert.
