That's what Ray Nagin (under indictment) mayor named NO. Maybe you should speak to him and his city council about it?

Were you alive in 2005? The Mayor of “Nawlins” gave it that name. Live with it.

You must be a racist to tell a black man, Mayor Nagin, that he cannot call it the “Chocolate City”.

For what it’s worth......

Mayor Nagin at a Martin Luther King Day celebration at City Hall New Orleans on January 16, 2006, gave a speech.

Shortly after, Nagin continued, “We as black people, it’s time, it’s time for us to come together. It’s time for us to rebuild a New Orleans, the one that should be a chocolate New Orleans. And I don’t care what people are saying Uptown or wherever they are. This city will be chocolate at the end of the day.”
