The Faubourg Treme – Untold Story of Black New Orleans documentary was very interesting and insightful. In our initial discussion about why we chose to attend the film session, many of us explained that we did not know much about the history of New Orleans, especially the segregation aspect and the diverse cultural environment presenting in this area of Louisiana. Looking back into the historic lens of New Orleans there is a lot of truth and history that we do not generally learn in school. Looking at Treme for instance, there is a direct link to how community infrastructure is directly affected by the government and devastating natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina. The end of reconstruction in Treme highlighted the inequality that black communities faced and are still facing due to systemic racism. Despite the injustice we see the resilience the people of Treme had through expressing their pain through jazz and the arts. This was very special to me because it portrayed how people can take their situations and create something beautiful regardless of what is thrown at them.
