The C.O.W.S. KATRINA: AFTER THE FLOOD Part III

[jwplayer mediaid=”15055″]

The Context of White Supremacy hosts the third study session on Gary Rivlin’s Katrina: After The Flood. Mr. Rivlin is a White man; while working for the New York Times he covered the historic engineering failure and negligence that drowned New Orleans in August of 2005. His 2015 bestseller reviews a decade of asymmetrical “recovery.” To be blunt, ten years of black New Orleanians being displaced and deliberately impeded from reconstructing their lives. Rivlin inspects all areas of people activity: the institution of charter schools, the destruction of public housing, and outright looting of funds designated for flood victims. Last week’s session re-introduced Lance Hill to C.O.W.S. listeners. Mr. Hill explains how the consensus among Whites during the days after the flood was good riddance to black people – including Ray Nagin. Rivlin continues to emphasize the extraordinary military presence – including Israeli mercenaries – that invaded the city. 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.
