Reality Check

I urge you to watch this video: Eyes of the Storm.

As you know, I’m quite obsessed with the impact of Katrina on New Orleans. I thought I had seen it all, but then I found this amazing piece of reality.

The video is a short documentary of the first few days after Katrina told by photographers from the New Orleans newspaper. They talk about their experiences and show pictures you’ve probably never seen unless you read that paper that week. The photos are two years old; the narrative is from this month.

It’s twenty-five minutes of mind-boggling images and emotion.
