Talkin' Water


Shannon Sonenstein, Director, Producer, Talkin' Water
and Briceshanay Gresham, 1 of the stars has joined us by telephone.
"Disillusioned by the media coverage of Hurricane Katrina, four girls –two from New Orleans and two from New York City– set out to tell the “real” story. Armed with video cameras and a sense of responsibility, the project quickly becomes personal as the girls explore issues of race, class and government – and are surprised to discover as much about themselves as New Orleans. Incorporating footage actually shot by the girls, Talkin’ Water follows the summer Rodneka, Suprena, Sade, and Briceshanay spent in New Orleans- exploring their feelings about Katrina, America and what it means to grow up in chaotic times."
Talkin' Water AKA speaking clearly, truthfully.
Thier trip was a very emotional learning experience for these 4 teens, they discovered discrimination and racism in government,
They found New Orleans still not rebuilt, Texas got help fast.
They also found hatred/bigotry upon returning to New Orleans.

A couple of memorable quotes,
Make lemonade from (life)lemons, you can do it! turn it around!
Don't miss the goodness!!!!!
