Lecture: "\;Descenda
nts"\; by John Durel \n
\n
Join us at Lloyd House for a ser
ies of lectures featuring local authors\, with the second featuring John
W. Durel\, author of "\;Descendants\, The Divided Lineage of a Louisi
ana Creole Family."\; "\;Descendants"\; raises questions of r
acial identity\, interracial relationships\, and racism as experienced by
eight generations of a Creole family living in New Orleans from the mid-
eighteenth into the twenty-first century. Each chapter relates stories of
individuals whose lives were shaped by race in the context of the times
in which they lived\, revealing evolving attitudes\, behaviors\, and laws
\, with implications for our understanding of race in America today.\n
\n
Dr. Durel will present an overview of the book\, read excerpts
\, and lead a discussion of some of the surprising stories that surfaced
through his extensive historical and genealogical research. \n
\n
Born in Thibodaux\, Louisiana\, John Durel holds a PhD in American His
tory from the University of New Hampshire. Following a career working in
and consulting with museums nationwide and internationally\, in 2019 he r
eturned to his interest in historical research and writing. "\;Descen
dants"\; is his first book.\n
