Back in the 60s, video cameras were a rare thing in people's homes. There's not a whole of video around showing us what Lafayette looked like then. You can find videos of Baton Rouge a little easier, and I think it's pretty great to look back at how these cities looked. I found some fantastic videos that Adrian Baudoin has uploaded to his page and wanted to share them with you.

In the 1960s, USL Men's Basketball coach Beryl Shipley stepped out in a big way against the South's unspoken rules on athletic integration. Losing was just not something Shipley was OK with, and he did everything he felt he could to be a winner. The story is being made into a documentary called "Lights Out In Blackham" and it looks absolutely amazing.
