Hurricane Katrina: The Drive: New Orleans Lower 9th Ward

A painful irony of post-Katrina New Orleans is how few people throughout the country understand the extent of what has happened to the city. Many people do not realize that, nearly 10 months later...

New Orleans....nothing but a shithole, a solution wall off the city and turn it into a prison and seal off all food and watch all the black people starve.

I really feel sorry for all the people that were affected by Katrina. BUT, the bottom line is that all New Orleans has is some shitty little levees to protect against any size of storm, much less a monster like Katrina. What do you think's going to happen? Of course somethings going to go wrong and when the levees break the water has nowhere else to go but down. New Orleans is basically a bathtub surrounded by Gulf of Mexico. They built the seawall in Galveston 100 yrs. ago. So if they could do

This is America, what happened here? We can go fight in a foreign country and save babies there, but here we ignore our own, this is pitiful. It makes me ashamed, can you imagine if this video is what people think America represents?

I've been to New Orleans recently, as part of a Dutch/American exchange program (I'm Dutch) centered around water, I have visited the Lower Ninth Ward, I've done some volunteer work and I can honestly not believe how left alone these people are. But despite that, they are hopeful, warm and incredibly kind to people like me who came to help. It just really amazed me and I hope people will realize that 3 years after the storm, there are still so many things to do...

Hi, I am doing school project on Katrina and I am focusing solely on the Lower Ninth Ward. I was wandering if I could have your email address or AIM to ask questions about your volunteering experience?

Appreciate it!
