Featured review
Don't blame this on class and race!!!!
Babies... children of the aftermath with thoughts about their parents, grandparents actions
I can understand their view points and the absolute disregard of the government actions afterwards.
Yet what you will keep hearing of these storied was... oh its just another hurricane. We'll be good. This will always be apart on New Orleans... I remember at 21 hearing about this storm a week, maybe 2, prior to it hitting and no one took it seriously.....
So let's talk about the culture of the syate over race. Not many people took that storm seriously. Im not discounting the response of the government AT ALL. It was horrible. I'm just saying it was many factors... people, area, normalcy, lack of preparation (on both ends) because it just happens.
I'll never forget how lucky I was to have water, diapers, and formula for my baby. I cried so hard for everyone in theor position. I just want to say in RETROFACT.... people and government could have prevented the outcome.
Both ends are guilty.
