Description
The Context of White Supremacy hosts the 9th study session on Gary Rivlin's Katrina: After The Flood. Mr. Rivlin is a White man; while employed at the New York Times he covered the historic engineering failure and negligence that destroyed New Orleans in August of 2005. His 2015 bestseller reviews a decade of asymmetrical "recovery." To make it plain, ten years of black New Orleanians being racially dislocated and purposely impaired from rebuilding their lives. Rivlin investigates all areas of people activity: the institution of charter schools, the destruction of public housing, and the looting of funds specified for flood victims. Last week's session described how White families in Lakeview had returned to their houses and completed the upgrades on their homes within months of the storm. By contrast, black families struggled to gain access to their property and had to pray for working toilets. Rivlin included the remarkable efforts of former black panther Malik Rahim. When powerful Whites failed to aid black New Orleanians, Rahim founded Common Ground, which provided food, medical supplies and housing repairs for tens of thousands. We hope this text will offer a more complete understanding of Hurricane Katrina and it's aftermath as a meticulously planned campaign of genocide against black New Orleanians. #AnswersForMiriamCarey INVEST in The COWS - http://tiny.cc/ledjb CALL IN NUMBER: 641.715.3640 CODE: 564943# The C.O.W.S. archives: http://tiny.cc/76f6p
