The Children's Defense gave me an unprecedented opportunity to speak & film the1st generation of children post-Katrina with the permission of their parents. Their feelings of hopelessness, emotional disconnect from their families and community are astounding. Fearful of walking in their neighborhood as a result of new gangs, stretches of streets with no homes to run to if frightened. We must have a call to action to assist these children that they are not alone and they have a fulfilling future ahead of them. Contact the Children's Defense Fund New Orleans and find out what you can do to assist.
