Native Waters: A Chitamacha Recollection

Journey into the Atchafalaya Basin with author Roger Stouff, son of the last chief of the Chitimacha Indians. Stouff shares native stories, beliefs, and perspectives about these often overlooked people while lamenting the demise of the river basin, the depletion of its sacred fishing and hunting grounds, and the painful "vanishings" of the time-honored Chitimacha way of life.
