What Saint would you put at the top of Lee Circle?

Maybe a black slave owner. Antoine Dubuclet, one of the wealthiest black slave owners in La. Also served in La Government. Many black slave owners in La. It would do much to educate everyone on history. There were also Asian slaves in La. I think several statues representing many aspects of slavery, not to celebrate it but to make people fully aware how slavery was much different in New Orleans.

IF YOU DIDN'T VOTE FOR BENSON... PLEASE CONSIDER

THERE WOULD BE NO NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WITHOUT BENSON.
Tom Benson saved New Orleans from losing the Saints in the 1980s. He got us through Catrina (no matter what the problems) and he hired the right people to develop winning teams. We won a Superbowl.

YOU MAY NOT KNOW....
Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium (formerly Fawcett Stadium)
is an outdoor football stadium in Canton, Ohio, United States. It is located adjacent to the grounds of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and hosts the annual Pro Football Hall of Fame Game, along with various high school and college football games. Dedicated 79 years ago in 1938, the stadium's original name honored the memory of John A. Fawcett, a former Canton board of education member, who died several years before the stadium was completed.

On November 24, 2014, the owner of the New Orleans Saints donated $11 million to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, $10 million of which was to go into renovating Fawcett Stadium.
In response to Benson's donation, the Hall of Fame announced that Fawcett Stadium would be renamed Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium as "the first step in a 'master plan' for major upgrades and expansion of the Hall of Fame Village."
