Katrina's "Hidden" Race War? Are You Kidding Me?

Lately, I've read quite a bit about Hurricane Katrina's "Hidden Race War." During Katrina, Professor Kathleen Bergin and I blogged about what we saw in Houston during the "relief" effort (to be fair, some of the effort was a relief; some of it, though, was shameful beyond words). We and many, many others raised issues of race. And we were in Houston. We weren't even in Louisiana or Mississippi or Alabama, where the worst of the natural and unnatural disasters happened.

We were called delusional, hysterical, unpatriotic and treated as race traitors. Three years later, it's breaking news that there is toxic deadly racism that occurred during the storm and continued in the aftermath (and continues right now, this very minute, today) in the Deep South? Wow . . .
