Episode 72: Pointe-Au-Chien – The People and The Place

from Louisiana Insider · host Louisiana Life Magazine

There is a place in Terrebonne Parish near the Gulf of Mexico known for its beautiful scenery, bountiful seafood and a population of indigenous people. It is also known for its fragile existence so near the water, as tested by Hurricane Ida. Ben Johnson, a producer for Louisiana Public Broadcasting, joins Louisiana Life Executive Editor Errol Laborde and podcast producer Kelly Massicot to discuss his documentary “The Plight of Pointe-Au-Chien,” a study of both the land and the native people who survive there. Oh yes, we’ll also hear about some of the creative indigenous dishes served at the dinner table.
