rich white woman who was the first to flee explains all. yep, i'm moved. not.
gimme the story of the li'l black kid who was all over the news, on the first reports, SCREAMING for help. fuck that fat rich bitch. and damn you for promoting bad writing.
I thought it was excellently written and she moved from NOLA a while ago, not just cuz of the hurricane. Anne Rice has been a voice for the people of New Orleans for decades now...helping to promote tourism and history amongst other things. I thought it very fitting to post that in my journal.
We all want that story of the lil black kid screaming for help. Go to http://www.nola.com for those stories. They'll make you cry, well...they made ME cry.
don't bash my journal jerkface, I don't bash yours.
"But to my country I want to say this: During this crisis you failed us. You looked down on us; you dismissed our victims; you dismissed us. You want our Jazz Fest, you want our Mardi Gras, you want our cooking and our music. Then when you saw us in real trouble, when you saw a tiny minority preying on the weak among us, you called us "Sin City," and turned your backs

look at the date she wrote it. That was BEFORE anybody had really done anything. People were still sitting on rooftops waiting for help.
People went to the SuperDome for help....people died horrid deaths there....and they were all promised that "somebody" was coming.
Looking back at it from ONE MONTH AFTER SHE WROTE IT, its easy to say all that you did in your rant. However, less than ONE WEEK POST KATRINA its easy to read her rant and agree with her and see her point of view.
a seven year old girl was found raped with her throat slit in the freezer at the superdome. That happened while people were waiting for "someone"
