DAY OUT AGAINST CORPORATE CRIME! More than a year has passed since a murder last occurred in the Iberville Housing Development. That Iberville, or any neighborhood in New Orleans can go through twelve months without being traumatized by a murder is a major accomplishment for any neighborhood in this violence plagued city.

C3/Hands Off Iberville. 504-587-0080.
