The I-10 Witness Project

The I-10 Witness Project is a community based story collective formed to document the myriad tales emerging from the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Comprised of Louisiana artists, educators and community organizers, I-10 Witness seeks to give voice to affected Louisiana citizens by documenting their stories through sound and video. We believe that now is the time to listen and provide a safe space for people to express how this storm has impacted their lives. We also want to cultivate a forum where citizens can voice their concerns about the reconstruction, redevelopment and rejuvenation of south Louisiana and New Orleans.
