our neighborhood in houston opened our doors to many people from new orleans and soon regretted it. with the influx came crime, looting and murder. our neighborhood was lost.
I went to Mississippi after Katrina for money and supplies. The volunteers were sad for me coming from New Orleans (metropolitan). I looked around and told them that I felt bad for Mississippi. It was just match sticks. If not for the levees being bombed, New Orleans would have been fine.
No one ever wants to talk about the cities who opened their homes for the evacuees, and then had crime rates rise. My small city took in about hundred and in about 2 weeks we were ready for them to leave. They stole from us, lied, grifted businesses, and demanded free stuff. We genuinely wanted to help, but wont do that again next hurricane.
There were poor whites. and blacks that died . I think the city of New Orleans need to pay for every life that was lost in that genocide murder in the 9th ward which was the poorest of the poorest of. residential districts in New Orleans. God bless those that were lost.
i live in va..i met survivors all the way up here...i will never forget!!..rip..every yr i give a shout out on fb...every yr...they dnt even talk about them anymore sad!!..
I went out there after katrina, the damage i saw was crazy...i cant out into words what i saw from alabama, gulf port mississippi, to new orleans...i stayed in picayune mississippi about 30 minutes or so away from new orleans...nice nice people everywhere..my heart just goes out to them all..
If I ever experience and ride out anything like Katrina and survive, I wouldn't want to live in the same area again. It would only exacerbate the flashbacks and nightmares I would have.
it's very true! I'm a native from New Orleans & hurricane katrina survivor. during slavery the white men felt in love with the beautiful Creole women. many had them for mistresses& have brought them plantations with there own slaves& houses in the French quarters or the 7th home of the Creole plantations in new Orleans. still today some Blacks didn't like Creoles and Creoles usually stick with there own kind. Some of my family is Creoles. most Creole married within there family blood line.
True. My family on my mom's dad;s side is Creole and from New Orleans. They did not like it when my grandfather married my grandmother a beautiful darker woman. They are taught to marry other Creoles. This was big in my family back in the day. Whereas it was mostly women who faced this discrimination it was present among men too. Smh. Some of my family still are tying to pass for white to this day but will deny it when you confront them. LOL. Moreover the family history of our is very rich. West African(mainly) but also French, Spanish, Native American, Asian, Asian Indian and even some Arab. Its definitely a "gumbo:" of cultures.
@@mnsv1720 no you Reich Winger cock sucker because of republi-KLANS oppression, white supremacy and racism the republiKLANS are very known for. Now fuck off! I bet you're one of those evil racist Reich Winger Nazis who votes republi-KLAN and that doesn't want real black history taught in schools.
I'm tired of people (non-Black) telling what Black people should do. Here's the thing: WE DO IT. We get out. We volunteer. We organize. Media doesn't report it. And that's okay. They don't need too. But people like you need to saying what other's should do.
Superpowers glasses,at least us whites aren't robbing people and selling hard drugs like your kind is only good at doing selling drugs and or commiting crimes because your type is too lazy to want to earn money the right way
Same thing happened in North Carolina September 15, 1999 when hurricane Floyd hit! The communities Princeville, East Tarboro, the town of Pinetops, Speed, Old Sparta Leggett and so many more places consisted of majority black folks. And most of them relocated after the flood. They knew it was coming because the major of the community of Princeville evacuated their home along with their belongings.
Yes, sometimes that's true. Too much of black Americans are suffering from what their black leaders have led them to, and that is ''you deserve to have someone help you'' instead of the more productive attitude of ''get out there and make it happen, don't look for the handout'.
This is why I say Britain and USA are one and the same people, same roots. Because its funny how its broadcasted on British news but not nearly enough on the TV in New Orleans.
"make sure everyone can get vouchers to access private schools or home school." That would be awesome, but what are the chances vouchers will be given to *everyone* to have access to good public schools?
also i have never seen houses built so low to the ground for where they were and knowing they were beneath sea level! why werent these houses built up higher? i see houses there on gator hunting that are built up very high above water to handle the water when it comes in.
N.O was and still is still under water level. There is a wall stoping water from flooding most of city. You can go to certain area and see up to20 ft. Walls stoping entire parts of city from going completely under water. White / black areas destroyed by break of walls today.
I'm self employed for a long time. I make things happen, if i did not have the abilities that make me money, i'd wash windows, i'd clean cars. i'd clean up my neighborhood and build a fence. That's what i'm talking about, it's not an insult to suggest it - but some people take it that way. If you're out of a job, make something happen. Gotta be creative , i know it's not easy. Lots of things aren't easy. But it's like ICEcube said , the crab in the bucket effect.
Evacuation of New Orleans did occur in the 1998 and 2004 for storms, so stop. Westhampton has been hit by storms in the past, but the so called “rich white” people weren’t harmed because it a resort beach area for secondary homes. They leave when a storms approach, so stop. The feds did not repair damaged homes on tax payers, secondary homes do not qualify for FEMA funds, so stop. 54% of residents affected in N.O. were renters, they don’t own, so they don’t get their homes replaced, so stop.
pushing the same old bullshit, even though I do agree with what he said about Katherine Harris.There is truth and glaring weakness in every ism and as Americans we should be able to separate the wheat from the chaff and use the ideas from all of them that best serve us all, not just the wealthy or poor or dark skinned or light. The constant characterization and labeling of every one does not serve any of us but those that truly wish to hold us all in bondage, economicly racially religiously
Thats' cause African Americans need to stop thinking that someone should give them somthing. It's so self destructive. African Americans need to get out and fix things, do things and make things happen. it IS possible, and it DOES work. Start by totally cleaning your back yards and your own houses. Your problem is most often your own mentality.
Because our society has become so inebriated with the idea that we're powerless. We're complacent and let things happen to us instead of getting angry. It's changing though, I think. We've had Occupy Wall Street, and fast food workers striking. But not fast enough.
As the Indians say, “man speak with forked tongue”. Passionate intellectual speech patterns cannot mask the cursory facts that are meant to excite the minds of a public that wants to hear about the apparent disparaging treatment of the poor people of New Orleans.Not just blacks, but all poor were affected (to be fair). Levee controversy- levees have been around since before 1879, constructed to aid the industry of their day, no oil companies then, so stop.
@@djones9122 PREACH IT! Even the small cities are fucked now. Drugs run the state. I lived in what was once a respectable town, now just drugs and crime. All started 20 years ago when they started moving people out of Philly and into the smaller towns and cities for "rehab". Now we're all fucked.
The thing is, we are not African Americans, we are the real descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Our Messiah is about to come back and bring recompense on everyone who mistreated his people.
Because Creoles today still haven't changed since slavery! the white man had put a lot of crap into there heads.during slavery Creole was told by slave owner that they was better then the dark skinned blacks. my brother is a history & wrote a paper on this subject.but his professor was a racist. and he looked up to the Creoles in the report my brother calls them sellout & but kissers, to the whites today's Creoles still have that same mentality. spike Lee's school dazed had it perfactly right!

Yes no one wants to talk about this. Wasn't just houston, it happened in other cities too
So did Dallas
You full of s*** Houston already had a bad crime rate….so do not scapegoat people from New Orleans.
Everyone seems to forget Mississippi actually got hit by the hurricane and lost many many lives as well.
But the blacks on New Orleans shout louder, so you lose. ;) You must not have as many blacks in the areas that were hit the worst.

So the gov pays to rebuild the rich peoples homes, but those who can't afford to rebuild get screwed
yeah dude in this case. if you live where its under the water level its a bad idea. but that doesnt mean that they couldnt have responded better
