In the 5th episode of this season, we sit with Vincent Sciama to discuss his leading role as Le Consul Général de France à la Nouvelle-Orléans, the cultural and economic relations between France and Louisiana, and the support from France towards our immersion schools in Louisiana.  

The honorable Vincent Sciama is Le Consul Général de France in Louisiana. He is responsible for economic relations, policies, culture, and education between Louisiana and France. Given the French heritage of the region, he plays an important role in the radiation of the francophone culture and the support for immersion schools. This past summer, he was a key player in the efforts to welcome new foreign teachers in Louisiana for the 2020-21 school year despite the ban of new visas.  

A special thank you to the West Baton Rouge Museum for their financial support of this episode. West Baton Rouge Museum is an educational resource committed to researching, collecting, preserving and presenting artifacts, documents, art objects, and the like that reflect the history and cultural heritage of West Baton Rouge Parish and the surrounding areas for the benefit of the general public and future generations.
