Pure and utter raw emotion pulled on the heartstrings of native New Orleanians as we watched our city drown, forced to figure out next steps for stabilizing our lives and families. Amid government disruption, downed communication, mass citizen displacement, and crumbles infrastructure, New Orleans was a city in shambles with its future in question.” – Erika McConduit-Diggs, The State of Black New Orleans: 10 Years Post Katrina Dennis R.
