Hurricane Katrina struck the south in the summer of 2006. Katrina was one the worse hurricanes to every hit United States. All of the houses in New Orleans and Mississippi were destroyed. Even parts of Georgia and Florida were destroyed. Aid was sent to Florida but very little aid was sent to New Orleans and Mississippi. The President didn’t really send aid to them, I believe because he didn’t see them as a priority and because they weren’t well off.
The conditions were horrible dead bodies were lying and deteriorating in the street full of water. You would have thought that this was a third world country instead of the United States. BET hosted a telethon, Saving Ourselves. The telethon raised millions. The performances were very uplifting. The telethon conveyed the message that we will succeed and overcome and for those who aren’t willing to help us then we must help and over come on our own.
