YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Friday marks the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, which decimated New Orleans and communities along the Gulf Coast, leading to one of the largest and most sudden relocations of people in U.S. history. Some 1.2 million Louisianans were displaced for months or even years. We spoke with a few of the thousands of Katrina survivors who relocated permanently.
