re: In the aftermath of Katrina, the shipping of black New Orleanians to the 4 corners of the country was considered suspect and was thought to be an attempt to remake New Orleans white. Well it looks like they are succeeding. NOLA is a pretty interesting place right now (though it always has been). Depending on your perspective... you've got a racist thing or a perseverance thing going on. That was a pretty good article. It's a social petrie (sp?) dish... it will say a lot about our culture. I guarantee the whole world of urban planning is watching... I think its a money thing. If you have the money, you get to stay; if you don't you're out of luck. Plus, I don't get how the 9th Ward is out of bounds for construction, but Lakeview, which is even more under sea level, gets to rebuild. IMO someone's been sold down the river.
