Spike Lee Movie
I saw the Spike Lee movie about Katrina last night. I am more angry now than I was while it happened. The movie showed me that the city of my birth was forever changed more by the failures of people, our politicians, and their policies than by Mother Nature.
The movie was very moving, but I felt the stories and interviews pinpointed the loss of only a few rather than emphasizing the losses of the many.
In any event, I am glad the movie was made. Maybe now that Americans have a clearer picture of what happened, their decisions in November will be more meaningful and easier to make.
