Two years have passed since Hurricane Helene devastated the Southeast. Many communities affected by the storm are still in the process of recovery. A new innovative project documents their journey using a unique format: a graphic novel.
In the PBS News Hour arts and culture series, CANVAS, correspondent William Brangham delved into this project. He spoke with Andrew Aydin about ‘Islands in the Sky: A People’s History of Hurricane Helene.’ This novel offers a powerful narrative that captures the ongoing struggles and resilience of these communities.
William Brangham, a celebrated correspondent, producer, and substitute anchor, hosts Horizons on PBS News. His thoughtful approach provides a platform for exploring diverse stories, including the impact of Hurricane Helene.
