A toxic combination of government neglect and socioeconomic inequality turned a crisis into a tragedy. The storm completely transformed one of the most beloved cities in America, leaving nearly 80 percent of New Orleans flooded and damaging 134,000 housing units, causing unprecedented destruction. The response to Katrina is a topic of unending debate and anger. But out of the rubble, there is hope. Watching coverage of the hurricane on television in 2005, noted urbanist and veteran journalist Roberta Brandes Gratz knew that the best chance for the city's recovery came from the people who would return to New Orleans. She also knew that she wanted to see for herself how the city would respond. Two years later, after having made several trips to the area and written several articles, Gratz bought a house in the Bywater neighborhood of New Orleans and immersed herself in the life of the city. We're Still Here Ya Bastards presents an unprecedented panoramic look at New Orleans' recovery in the years following the hurricane. From the Lower Ninth Ward to the storied French Quarter, Gratz shares the stories of people who returned to their homes and have taken the rebuilding of their city into their own hands. An internationally renowned urban critic, Gratz shows how the city is recovering despite erroneous governmental policies that serve private interests rather than the public good. By telling stories that are often ignored by the mainstream media, We're Still Here Ya Bastards shows the strength and resilience of a community that continues to work to rebuild New Orleans"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000728677 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000728677 650_0 $$aCommunity development$$zLouisiana$$zNew Orleans. 000728677 650_0 $$aUrban renewal$$zLouisiana$$zNew Orleans$$xCitizen participation. 000728677 650_0 $$aCity planning$$zLouisiana$$zNew Orleans$$xCitizen participation. 000728677 650_0 $$aHurricane Katrina, 2005$$xSocial aspects. 000728677 651_0 $$aNew Orleans (La.)$$xHistory$$y21st century. 000728677 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGratz, Roberta Brandes.$$tWe're still here ya bastards.$$dNew York : Nation Books, [2015]$$z9781568587448$$w(DLC) 2014047653$$w(OCoLC)893455135 000728677 8520_ $$bacq 000728677 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000728677 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=2039739$$zOnline Access 000728677 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:728677$$pGLOBAL_SET 000728677 980__ $$aEBOOK 000728677 980__ $$aBIB 000728677 982__ $$aEbook 000728677 983__ $$aOnline
