Sample Book Insights: #1 I was 11 when the World Trade Center towers collapsed. I watched the news coverage of the disaster unfold live on the second hour of the Today Show. I did not know at the time that the government failed to prevent the attacks, but there was an immediate government response once they happened. #2 The media has a role to play in how we respond to disasters, especially when government is failing to meet survivors’ most basic needs. #3 The aftermath of Katrina was a sad story of how the government failed the people of New Orleans, and how the city was not able to rebuild itself. It has stayed in the public consciousness as a pivotal event in the emergence of the Black Lives Matter movement. #4 After Hurricane Katrina, the city of New Orleans was left in shambles. The flood destroyed most of the buildings in the city, and the oil spill that came with it heavily contaminated the soil.
