Summary:
This heartbreaking zine gives a first-person account of the devastation New Orleans residents suffered during and after Hurricane Katrina. Buddhist bike mechanic Shelley Jackson describes her grief at the destruction of the city she feels deeply rooted in, as she evacuates and returns as soon as possible to volunteer at spaces set up for the "refugees," begins to clean up her water-sodden house, and feeds starving pets left behind during the storm. Issues of poverty, governmental neglect, and systemic racism are addressed in this zine, which also includes several hand-drawn illustrations of the city of New Orleans.
