  • Summary

  • Descendants of Biloxi, Chitimacha, and Choctaw Indians, who’ve lived just off Louisiana’s coast for more than a century, are losing their homes. Isle de Jean Charles is disappearing under the water faster than most anyone imagined. Why? Environmental degradation has been fueled by government and industry officials who once saw value in this land, and then changed their minds. Now, residents are being told it’s time to move. Not everyone is willing to go.
