On August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina made landfall near New Orleans leaving death and destruction across the Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama Gulf Coast counties. Racial disparities exist in disaster response. This book asks why some communities get left behind economically, spatially, and physically before and after disasters strike.
