"Welcome To New Orleans" is the full story as brought to light by Amy Goodman and the Democracy Now staff in the previous entry "Katrina's Hidden Race War." It is an entirely different look into the eyes of the storm. We are used to these panoramic Kubrickian shots from helicopters of the raging waters and the structural carnage. We saw people getting rescued from roofs and thousands squinting as they looked up at the chopper filming them. This doc brings you right into the fight, into a specific neighborhood and its efforts to "wring out" a semblance of community. As told through the words and wisdom of Malik Rahim, co-founder of the Common Ground Collective and future Congressional candidate.
