Video Discription |
There are different means of knowing and remembering, and they are not mutually exclusive. Through a small tribe known as “the People of Many Waters,” this high definition Louisiana Public Broadcasting documentary offers an alternative way of recalling Native American history – Chitimacha history. "Native Waters: A Chitimacha Recollection" is the story of these Native Americans who are among the first people of Louisiana and heirs of an unbroken 8,000 year past in their native coastal region of the Atchafalaya Basin of Louisiana. Living off the bounty of one of the richest inland estuaries on the continent, this indigenous nation persists and rejuvenates its culture while losing its ancestral territory to forces other than conquest. Through "Native Waters: A Chitimacha Recollection", we journey into sacred places of the Basin with author and keeper of his family’s oral tradition Roger Stouff, a fisherman descended from “a long and distinguished lineage of fishermen within a nation of fishermen,” as he provides native stories, beliefs and perspectives about this important and often overlooked people.
==============================================
This documentary from March 22, 2011, features Roger Emile Stouff, a member of the Chitimacha Tribe of Louisiana, recounting the history and traditions of his tribe. It follows Stouff as he fishes in the Atchafalaya Basin, the ancestral home of the Chitimacha. It also touches on: the importance of fishing and the Atchafalaya Basin to the Chitimacha people; their oral tradition; their efforts to preserve their history; the threat of coastal erosion to the Atchafalaya; and the tribe’s efforts to remain connected. This program also includes interviews with Dayna Bowker Lee, a historian and ethnographer, and Kimberly Walden, the cultural director of the Chitimacha tribe. |
