The Hurricane Katrina disaster dramatically illustrated the continuing racial and class inequalities of America. In this powerful reader, prominent scholars and writers examine the racial impact of the catastrophe and the failure of government, corporate, and private agencies to respond to the plight of the New Orleans black community. This reader is the second volume of the Critical Black Studies Series.
