Synopsis "Haunted by Waters: The Future of Memory and the red River Flood of 1997"

This twentieth anniversary of the Red River Flood of 1997, which devastated the town of Grand Forks, North Dakota and surrounding areas, gives a new generation of Grand Forksers and Red River valley citizens the occasion to look backward so that they can look forward. Taking stock of how the city and its people have changed in these last twenty years offers us a new chance to envision the future of Grand Forks and the Red River Valley. What's more, we hope that this book can extend the lessons learned through the recovery to others coping with their own unique disasters. Haunted by Waters emerged from a year-long course in the University of North Dakota's Writing, Editing, and Publishing Program led by David Haeselin. Students in this course compiled, organized, and edited unpublished archival documents from the Orin G. Libby Manuscript Collection in the Chester Fritz Library at the University of North Dakota with new contributions from citizens and experts who lived through the flood and the region's recovery. The archival inclusions include government documents, student journalism, blueprints, design plans, and transcribed 911 calls. In pairing new stories with these archival documents, the project is set to inspire new discussions about how the city got to where it is today, so that more people can join the larger civic conversation about the right steps forward for the city, the state, the region, and our nation.
