A four part documentary by Spike Lee illustrates the impact of the hurricane on the people of New Orleans. It shows what went wrong before, during, and most definitely after, the hurricane. This movie is hard to watch because you see how horribly the US treated our own citizens after the hurricane.It took George W. Bush two weeks to go down to NOLA to see the damage.
People were without food/water for days after Katrina.
Dead bodies were found in homes six months after the storm.
Our own US citizens were called 'refugees' for fleeing to new cities & towns.
Years later, people never returned to their homes.
This movie really shows what happened & it's hard to understand....why. I hope this never happens again to anyone in this country. For a raw & unforgiving view into the mess that was & still is Katrina, check out this movie. You will also see how resilient the residents of NOLA are & how dedicated they are to their city. The passion and the culture this city exudes is pretty rare these days.
