Trouble the Water
Trouble the Water

“It's going to be a day to remember,” declares aspiring rap artist, Kimberly Rivers Roberts, in the award-winning Hurricane Katrina documentary, Trouble the Water, from #AcademicVideoOnline and Zeitgeist Films. The film opens the day before the storm makes landfall -- just blocks away from the French Quarter, but far from the New Orleans that most tourists know. As the hurricane rages and the floodwaters fill her world and the screen, Kim turns her new video camera on herself and her 9th Ward neighbors as they retreat to higher ground and witness the dramatic rescues of friends and neighbors. Filmmakers document Kim’s return to New Orleans, the devastation of her neighborhood, and the appalling repeated failures of government. Weaving an insider's view of #HurricaneKatrina with a mix of verite and in-your-face filmmaking, Trouble the Water is a redemptive tale of self-described street hustlers who become heroes. Winner of many awards, including the Grand Jury Prize at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival, it is an astonishingly powerful documentary that is at once horrifying and exhilarating. Documentaries provide a lens into others’ realities and offer viewpoints that challenge our opinions and assumptions. They encourage students’ critical thinking and are a valuable addition to any curriculum. #BlackHistoryMonth Preview the film-> https://goo.gl/YW7YNa Already an Academic Video Online subscriber?

Our Story

ProQuest's Alexander Street products are curated, discipline-focused, primary-source collections, websites, and streaming media for learning and research. We’re passionate about creating landmark online resources that help scholars and students discover and learn.

Our collections deliver previously unavailable content in ways that further research and learning. Working closely with faculty, librarians, archives, and publishers, we develop our databases to the highest academic standards. We painstakingly secure copyrights, digitize the content, index the materials meticulously using semantic fields, add supporting reference and contextual material, and then publish the resulting collections on our award-winning online platform.

Our mission is to “make silent voices heard.”

Whether it’s previously unseen plays by Pulitzer Prize winners, the first available full run of an important publication such as The Black Panther Party Newspaper, or otherwise inaccessible historical archives, we love bringing otherwise “silent” and hidden gems to scholars and students. We’ve received dozens and dozens of “BEST” awards from industry publications (Library Journal and others for numerous projects in all our disciplines); organizations (e.g., History News Network for North American Women's Letters and Diaries); evaluation groups (The Charleston Advisor’s various awards); and industry watchers (e.g., EContent 100: The Companies that Matter Most in the Digital Content Industry).
