Katrina Stories - Community

Despite all New Orlean's problems, we have awesome people. It's the community of people that makes us stay. It's what sucks outsiders in and it's what people miss when they leave. We are resourceful, creative, beautiful, tough, loving, and we know how to have a good time. Today we hear from Shana, Vuong, Junior, Emma Hao, and Carol. Their voices speak to what it means to belong, to hold on to culture, to create, and to care for one another when everything else is uncertain.

Katrina Stories - The Power of Nature

Today, we hear from Venice, Arnold, Rose, Joe & Lucien—five people whose stories remind us just how humbling nature can be. As a species, we've harnessed science, built remarkable technologies, and solved problems that once seemed insurmountable. But these stories ask us to consider: what happens when all that meets a force beyond our control? At some point, we're reminded—we're not above nature. We're part of it.

Katrina Stories - Kids in School

In a previous introduction we told you about how we teamed with organizations like VAYLA [https://vayla-no.org/] to document their membership's experiences. Another group we spent a lot of time with were teachers and staff at George Cox Elementary in Gretna and that's especially thanks to the generosity of their principal Dr. Scott Steckler. Today you'll hear Linda, Sheryl, Sara and Meg discuss what school was like in the aftermath of Katrina when the population was in flux and schools were limited.

Katrina Stories - Gentrification & The High Cost of Living

After the storm, the challenge wasn't just returning home. It was being able to afford to stay. A problem that persists to this day. Rising rents, lost jobs, and changing neighborhoods reshaped the lives of so many New Orleanians. In today's episode, we hear from Catherine, Dennis, Norma, Joshua and Sondra as they describe the weight of gentrification and the high cost of living in a city still trying to rebuild.

Katrina Stories - You Have to Love a Bureaucracy

Our two interviewees today describe issues with insurance companies and government bureacracies. Let's put it like this - if the recovery from Katrina was a stool it would have three legs: the community, the government, and insurance companies…and that stool would wobble every time you sat on it.
