NOSACONN Joins NOLA Mayor Cantrell In Call For Russell Wilson To Go Marching In With Saints
EntSun News/10868066
NEW ORLEANS - EntSun -- Posted Courtesy of Wright Enterprises San Francisco~Dallas Community Spotlight
As New Orleans Mayor, LaToya Cantrell calls for NFL quarterback Russell Wilson and his wife, Ciara Wilson to be in that number when the "Saints Go Marching In," Damon J. Batiste of NOLA's Royal Family of Music and founder of NOSACONN, Inc. (New Orleans South Africa Connection) joins with Mayor Cantrell in her call for the power couple to be a part of the NOLA culture, as he salutes the Mayor and Actress Connie Chiume of South Africa, during the first week of Women's History Month that kicks off today, Monday, March 1, 2021!
"Great call Mayor Cantrell," said Damon J. Batiste. "There's nothing like NOLA's culture and it would be great for Russell and Ciara to join our history that has impacted the world." As an aside, Batiste reminds everyone that Ciara is not a stranger to NOLA's Main Stage and The Essence Magazine Festival that Batiste helped to birth in New Orleans. He was instrumental in the creation of the 2016 Durban Essence Festival in South Africa. "That was a major call and move by Mayor Cantrell that came just as Black History Month was ending and Women's History Month begins. She's making history of her own on some many levels as New Orleans Chief Executive Officer."
