Isle de Jean Charles: Inevitable Loss or Forced Retreat? | La Veillée

Travel to Isle de Jean Charles, an island in Terrebonne Parish that once encompassed more than 22,000 acres and for centuries was home to hundreds of Native American French-speaking families. Today, only 320 acres and 4 families remain, and it is the site of a first-of-its kind resettlement effort. The La Veillée team revisits the rationale behind the decisions leading to this relocation and investigates what the future of the island will be in the aftermath of resettlement. La Veillée is made in partnership with Télé-Louisiane - https://telelouisiane.com/ In Louisiana French, la veillée is the word for “evening porch visits” – a time when you would talk about what's happening in your community and all the things going on. It perfectly describes this unique news magazine produced in partnership between LPB and Télé-Louisiane. La Veillée is a 15-minute look at the issues, culture, and people of Louisiana's French language speaking population – all told in Louisiana French. It is part of LPB’s commitment to showcasing Louisiana’s unique French culture and heritage and will be particularly interesting for students, teachers, and parents who take part in our state’s network of 35+ French immersion schools. Subtitles will be available in English.
