Bashing NOLA transplants...
~things kevin hates
~Since my post on suburb bashing drew lots of attention, I figured I’d return to a topic I’d said I would cover: bashing New Orleans residents who aren’t natives.
This strikes me as downright inhospitable.
Just as being American isn’t really about where you were born, neither is being a New Orleanian. It’s true that the way we use the English language, you wouldn’t say you’re from somewhere unless you were born there or spent a significant part of your childhood there. But the history of this city is littered with notable New Orleans residents who aren’t from here.
