Happy New Year!!

I haven't posted much for the past couple of weeks because of holiday and travel commitments.

May I take this opportunity to wish everyone a Happy New Year. One of my resolutions will be to restart publishing on a regular basis. With the upcoming Presidential Election, 2008 should be most interesting!

Why this Blog?

THE KATRINA MEMO was first launched in the wake of Hurricane Katrina when issues of class, race and poverty re-emerged as major national issues.The original goal was to keep a focus on post-Katrina reconstruction and the issues that surfaced out of what was the worst natural disaster in the history of the United States. While we continue to focus on what's happening in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast we'll also explore broader social and political issues that are of concern to all Americans.
