New Orleans-After Katrina
New Orleans-After Katrina
Mould grows in a property flooded after the levies broke in the lower 9th ward. Personal posessions damaged by the Hurricane and flood lay destroyed.
Some four months after Hurricane Katrina many poor areas of New Orleans are still without power. Residents claim that the rebuilding project promised by the authorities will not benefit the poor. To date residents have been given four months to repair their homes or risk it being liable to demolition, leaving the land to be claim be the State.
