Several Katrina memories still haunt me:

 A poor older Black man standing in front of the Superdome cries out emotionally to a rolling camera, "I'm way overdue for some luck";

An old Black  woman arrives at a belated rescue bus, only to be told that she must leave her put cat at the side of the road--"animals not allowed on the bus";

A lone man on a backkhoe is slowly scooping displaced mud and trash from the edge of a devastated 9th Ward levy.  His job, to close the close the gaping breach  @mdkhuggins
