I took this picture in the 9th Ward one year after the Katrina disaster. All over the news there are stories about New Orleans five years later. The tragedy is that there has been no change in the 9th Ward over the past five years. There has been no redevelopment of the housing. The poor have not been able to move back into their former neighborhood. While downtown is booming and the areas where those who are rich have been restored, the poor are left to there own resources which is totally inadequate. How do you keep hope alive in the midst of this devastation?
