Still Waiting: Life After Katrina. This one-hour documentary film is a collaborative project of Kate Browne, Afro-Creole specialist, and two-time Emmy winning filmmaker Ginny Martin. The film tracks the experiences of an extended family of 150 African-Americans from St. Bernard Parish for 18 months following Hurricane Katrina. Still Waiting was broadcast on PBS stations in August, September and October 2007. Funded by National Science Foundation, Colorado State University and Women in Film. Still Waiting documents the remarkable story of resilience, family and attachment to place. The role of race, women, family, food and faith are integral to the content and provide powerful teaching opportunities. The film’s website includes a low resolution streaming video of the film, a link showing reactions to the documentary, PBS broadcast schedules, and links for ordering a DVD for personal or institutional use.
