Who Was The First African-American Woman To Win An Individual Olympic Gold Medal?

One interesting fact about New Orleans is its unique above-ground cemeteries, known as "cities of the dead." Due to the city's low-lying location and high water table, traditional below-ground burials were often problematic. As a result, New Orleans developed a distinctive style of above-ground tombs and mausoleums, such as the famous St. Louis Cemetery No. 1. These cemeteries have become not only burial grounds but also significant cultural and historical landmarks.
