Download or read book Asian Cajun Fusion written by Carl A. Brasseaux and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2022-03-30 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shrimp is easily America’s favorite seafood, but its very popularity is the wellspring of problems that threaten the shrimp industry’s existence. Asian-Cajun Fusion: Shrimp from the Bay to the Bayou provides insightful analysis of this paradox and a detailed, thorough history of the industry in Louisiana. Dried shrimp technology was part of the cultural heritage Pearl River Chinese immigrants introduced into the Americas in the mid-nineteenth century. As early as 1870, Chinese natives built shrimp-drying operations in Louisiana’s wetlands and exported the product to Asia through the port of San Francisco. This trade internationalized the shrimp industry. About three years before Louisiana’s Chinese community began their export endeavors, manufactured ice became available in New Orleans, and the Dunbar family introduced patented canning technology. The convergence of these ancient and modern technologies shaped the evolution of the northern Gulf Coast’s shrimp industry to the present. Coastal Louisiana’s historic connection to the Pacific Rim endures. Not only does the region continue to export dried shrimp to Asian markets domestically and internationally, but since 2000 the region’s large Vietnamese immigrant population has increasingly dominated Louisiana’s fresh shrimp harvest. Louisiana shrimp constitute the American gold standard of raw seafood excellence. Yet, in the second decade of the twenty-first century, cheap imports are forcing the nation’s domestic shrimp industry to rediscover its economic roots. “Fresh off the boat” signs and real-time internet connections with active trawlers are reestablishing the industry’s ties to local consumers. Direct marketing has opened the industry to middle-class customers who meet the boats at the docks. This “right off the boat” paradigm appears to be leading the way to reestablishment of sustainable aquatic resources. All-one-can-eat shrimp buffets are not going to disappear, but the Louisiana shrimp industry’s fate will ultimately be determined by discerning consumers’ palates.

Download or read book The ROSE of Brays Bayou written by Sidney St. James and published by BeeBop Publishing Group. This book was released on 2020-04-21 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel, written in the Creative Nonfiction genre, is factually accurate. As the author, my primary goal in writing in this style is to communicate the truthful information, just like a seasoned journalist, but to shape it in such a way that it reads like fiction. The rush to the Louisiana border was known to the Texans as the Runaway Scrape, the Great Runaway or the Sabine Shoot. Whatever one calls it, the wild exodus was a nightmare of terror and suffering for women and children across the Lone Star State. It was only their burning desire for retribution, which made it possible for them to keep going. REMEMBER THE ALAMO! REMEMBER GOLIAD! COME AND TAKE IT! Dilue Rose Harris told her story for the Eagle Lake Headlight in 1900. William Kell gave a copy of the manuscript to Sidney St. James in an edited form. Her story now comes forth and told through the perspective of a creative nonfiction genre. Delicate women trudged from day to day until their shoes wore completely out and continued their journey to the east with bare feet, lacerated, and bleeding at almost every step. Their clothes were scant and provided no means of shelter from frequent drenching downpours and bitterly cold winds.--- Soldier from the Battle of San Jacinto Constant exposure to the elements caused measles, whooping cough, and other unknown diseases. Many died from along the Sabine Shoot! One woman and her two children rode a horse that bolted into a swollen bayou and plummeted into the torrent. Horrified refugees on the other bank could only watch as a horse, mother and children swept under, never to be seen again, by the swift current. The cries of the women were distressing. They raised their hands to Heaven and declared they lost their all. They knew not where to go. Many said they preferred to die on the road rather than die at the hand of the Mexicans or Indians. --- Dilue Rose Harris "I would like to make a very special toast for our Second Anniversary ball. The men of Texas deserved much of the credit, but more was due to the many women across Texas. Armed men facing a foe couldn't but be brave. But, my friends, the women, with their little children around them, without means of defense or power to resist, faced danger and death with unflinching courage. God bless the women of Texas!"--- General Thomas Jefferson Rusk Not wishing the women and children to see their homes put to the torch in Gonzales, Texas, Sam Houston led the civilians out of the small community. Then he ordered every roof large enough to shelter a Mexican's head burned to the ground. Captain John Sharpe and his torch crew stayed behind and burned every building in site to the ground. Houston's efforts to spare their feelings were in vain. That night, however, they turned and saw the orange glow on the horizon as Gonzales burned to the ground. Everything! Finally, the women of the Runaway Scrape justifiably regarded themselves as Veterans of the Texas Revolution. They endured dangers and hardships as harsh as those faced by their soldier-husbands. Not as commonly lauded over the last almost two hundred years, their efforts were just as important. Santa Anna had no secret of his objective. He wanted to drink a cup of coffee from the waters of the Sabine River and on the way, rid Texas of all disloyal foreigners. His campaign ended on April 21, 1836.
