SEJ 2014 Annual Conference

September 03, 2014 to September 07, 2014

It’s been 11 years since SEJ first came to New Orleans, and I’m inviting you back for an unexpurgated return visit to see for yourself what’s happened in the aftermath of two of the nation’s most historic disasters.

This is the city I’ve fallen in love with during the past 30 years despite its flaws, including those that led to both the flooding in the aftermath of Katrina and the oiling after the Deepwater Horizon disaster. On our full-day bus tours and in our panels, meet our residents, both those who survived Katrina and those who moved to New Orleans to help it rebuild. Learn about the struggles of our fishers, many of whom saw their boats destroyed during the hurricane and then found their new boats forced to lay at anchor for an entire fishing season by the oil spill.
