Angola is the site of the Louisiana State Penitentiary, built on the former Angola Plantation once owned by slave trader Isaac Franklin; it opened as a state prison in 1901. In 1951 inmates protesting conditions cut their Achilles tendons and became known as the Heel String Gang. A 1972 federal ruling in Gates v. Collier ended the trusty system.
