As the world watched in horror, Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans on August 29, 2005. Like many who watched the unfolding drama on television news, director Spike Lee was shocked not only by the scale of the disaster, but by the slow, inept and disorganized response of the emergency and recovery effort. Lee was moved to document this modern American tragedy, a morality play witnessed by people all around the world.
Speakers from the Aftershock Action Alliance (http://aftershockaction.blogspot.com/) will be on hand to give information about community preparedness to Natural Disaters.
7pm Tuesday November 20th.
123 Tompkins Ave (corner of Myrtle) Bed Stuy Brooklyn.
G to Myrtle Willoughby
