Panel Discussion On The Impact Of Environmental Stress On A Culture
Following the screening of New York filmmaker Leslye Abbey's "Angels of the Basin" and "Bayou Landfall," there will be a panel discussion on the issues raised by those two films regarding the impact of environmental stresses and damage, both man-made and natural, on the unique cultures and ways of life found in South Louisiana and possible ways to preserve both the environment and those cultures. Among those participating in the panel discussion will be cultural anthropologist Ray Brassieur; Mike Bienvenu, President of the Louisiana Crawfish Producers Association; photographer, author and lecturer Greg Guirard; and Michael Dardar, Vice-Principal Chief of the United Houma Nation.
