HBO's Treme and Post-Katrina Catharsis

The Mediated Rebirth of New Orleans
Herausgeber: Dessinges, Catherine; Roberts, Shearon; Gendrin, Dominique

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book argues that fictional television can educate audiences on complex communities and issues long after it has faded from the news cycle. Treme, to date, remains one of the most notable experiments of how post-Katrina New Orleans communities struggle to hold on to their cultural and historical essence.
