When the New Orleans City Council voted unanimously to rename Jefferson Davis Parkway in Mid-City to Norman C. Francis Parkway in August 2020, it confirmed what many across the country knew: the retired Xavier University of Louisiana president is a living legend, an icon worthy of every tribute he has earned during a more than 70- year long career.
In a new WYES-TV documentary, DR. NORMAN C. FRANCIS: A LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP, Dr. Francis will reflect on his monumental life in a one-on-one interview. Archival photos, video and interviews with Dr. Francis’ family, friends and colleagues will document his career of service and leadership.

You Night's Ribbons Rock the Runway event taking place on Sat. Oct. 1st at the Sugar Mill - 1021 Convention Center Blvd. This year we will be doing a world record breaking runway show with models representing 18 women's cancers.
- Doors open at 5:00 p.m.
- Runway Show starts at 5:45 p.m.
- Post Party with The Molly Ringwalds is from 8:00 - 11:00 p.m.
RIBBONS ROCK THE RUNWAY is the theme of You Night’s Annual Gala, scheduled to take place Saturday, October 1st at the Sugar Mill in New Orleans. The evening features a 500 foot-long runway stage, where 500 models will walk the runway representing the ribbon colors of 18 women’s cancers. The event raises funds to support the “We Lift You Up” fund - a 501c3 public charity dedicated to helping women emotionally cope after a cancer diagnosis. By attempting to break a world record for the most amount of models in a runway show, Ribbons Rock will set out to bring awareness to women battling 18 different types of cancers. In a month where pink is always the dominant ribbon color talked about (and justifiably so - with so many women diagnosed each year), You Night hopes to expand the conversation to include the many other types of cancers that women have. Through our efforts, we hope many other women will find resources for early detection, self-care, and ways to find support for those diagnosed.Ribbons Rock is open to the public and includes live entertainment from The Molly Ringwalds, and the two-hour high-energy runway show where the procession of models will be wearing fashionable clothes (of their choosing) in the colors of 18 different awareness ribbons. Walking with the cancer survivor role models will be professional models represented by Chic Nouvelle Modeling Agency, Positive Image Modeling and Coastal Fashion week.I have attached a Press Release with details regarding the event.For Press Passes or additional information about Ribbons Rock the Runway or the You Night empowerment program, please contact myself at 504-450-1837 / haag@msn.com or visit www.younightevents.com
