The Claiborne Corridor is a predominately African American community that was once considered one of the most economically viable areas in the country. It extends across the center of New Orleans, connecting Jefferson and St. Bernard Parishes.
After over 50 years of Redlining, Urban Renewal and countless harmful municipal policies, the area suffers from the deepest disparities and outcomes in New Orleans. The city of New Orleans and various organizations have committed to righting the wrongs that began decades of neglect for the area.
