Soul Rebels Band (local New Orleans band) performs on the rooftop of the former Louisiana Art Works building while facing the statue of Robert E Lee (Lee Circle).  The Soul Rebel Band’s performance proposes an alternative presence, an ephemeral monument to the Robert E. Lee statute on Lee Circle and asserts a dialogue about New Orleans' racial complexity.
