Branford Marsalis and Harry Connick, Jr.
Their European immigrant ancestors blazed unconventional trails in America, from capturing British ships for the American Revolution to crossing racial barriers in slave-era Louisiana.

In this hour, we trace the turbulent and contradictory history of the city of New Orleans through the family stories of these two fascinating men.
