Description
"Writing the Blues" represents the only collection focused on how university faculty and students worked with communities affected by the Katrina / Rita hurricanes. Featuring personal, poetic, and academic pieces, "Writing the Blues" takes you through the onset of the storm, it’s immediate aftermath, and the projects dedicated to rebuilding not only the infrastructure of a city, but the diverse and rich culture it contains.

"With Writing the Blues, we tried to create a publication for any teacher working to explain the value of service-learning and community /university partnerships to their students, colleagues, or their administration."
