C-SPIN is remembering Katrina then and now.......the stories are just heartbreaking.....

I think this program is helpful for people to just talk about it.....and it's just so sad....just so sad.....and hard to believe it's been 10 years, and places are still just as devastated as ithey were right after the storm. The program is over now.

rebuild neighborhoods in the lower lying areas, which just happens to be where most of the black majority neighborhoods were. And it doesn't make sense to rebuild those areas, but the people who were living there don't deserve to continue to live as Katrina refugees outside of New Orleans if they want to go home. The city, state, and federal governments could have combined resources to build homes for these New Orleans residents.
