The Indian nation and the
second line culture are just now learning what the Krewes have known for the last 150
years. They are starting to incorporate their respective clubs and develop
logos at an
accelerated rate. Leveling the playing field more as they too discover the
ways too explore the non-profit tax status and the relief it brings to
the treasury of the small companies, they now own.
The history of the Mardi Gras Indians here in
New Orleans is the stuff of legends. Honoring the native Indians which aided
the escape of slaves, the Indians did so at the risk of life and limb. Take
a look at the full history of the Mardi Gras Indian. From 1700 to Today! We
honor our Indian brothers and sisters, within and during Carnival. All
Year long!
