Who dat? Ludacris Knocks on Doors in New Orleans for 2010 Census

NEW YORK, April 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Lucadris swept through New Orleans (see video here) to motivate African Americans to fill out and mail back their 2010 Census form. He hit WQUE radio station to talk to listeners who may not have responded to the Census yet. Ludacris gave shout outs from his van to surprised fans on his way to the New Orleans main post office. By the time he visited a home on Mirtha Street, word had spread about his visit and fans looked on as he knocked on doors and toured formerly Katrina ravaged areas that are now on the mend but still in need of revitalization. "I hope people in this neighborhood know that resources from the Census will go toward rebuilding New Orleans," Luda tells his guide Gretchen Bradford, a homeowner on the block. "I am counting on you to spread the word to people in the community," said Ludacris.
