520 _aRESUMEN: In this article I explore how Casa Samba , the oldest and most estabished cultural organization representing Brazilian culture in New Orleans, performs global images of Bazil on the local stage of New Orleans. I explore how the image of Brazil projected by Casa Samba performanced inevitably becomes mediated through a New Orleanian worldview in what direction Curtis Pierre terms as " Amerizilian" experience. I also examine Brezilian immigrants´ relationship, or lack thereof , to Casa Samba. Brazilian immigrants who relocated to New Orleans after Hurricane Katerina to work in construction are rarely performers with Casa Samba, as they tend to come from areas of Brazil where samba is not representative of local identity. I argue, however, that whether or not they participate directly in Casa Samba as members, Casa Samba is crucial to the construction of a Brazilian identity in New Orleans.
