 ay\, Jan. 11th\, 6-8pm at All My Relations Arts.\n\nMy Louisiana Love t
 races a young woman’s quest to find a place in her Native American com
 munity as it reels from decades of environmental degradation. Monique Ve
 rdin returns to Southeast Louisiana to reunite with her Houma Nation fam
 ily. But soon she sees that her people’s traditional way of life is th
 reatened by a cycle of man-made environmental crises. Hurricane Katrina 
 and the BP oil leak are just the latest rounds in this century-old cycle
  that is forcing Monique’s clan to adapt in new ways. Monique must ove
 rcome the loss of her home\, her father\, and her partner – and redefi
 ne the meaning of home.\n\nMy Louisiana Love is a  film by Sharon Linez
 o Hong\, Mark Krasnoff and &amp\; Monique Verdin\, directed by Sharon Li
 nezo Hong. Run time: 1h 6m\, followed by a live virtual discussion with 
 Monique Verdin. This screening is part of arts programming for our curre
 nt exhibit\, Aabijijiwan / Ukeyat yanalleh.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\n[caption id="a
