Has anyone watched this yet? Is there any new groundbreaking discoveries in the doc or is it the same as the other 150 docs about Katrina out there where they all use the same footage bla bla bla?

Summary: only affected black people. Nobody white was affected and W Bush was fine with that.

Lots of dindu’s and hero army guy telling scared white soldiers to put away their weapons.

I watched it. Nothing new. Not balanced and no attempt to show the true experience of the city overall. Pure propaganda.

Honore comes across as an arrogant pos in these documentaries

If you are white, skip episode 3
Summary…it’s all your fault.
Apparently, New Orleans was a beacon of education prior to Katrina
Also, Katrina only affected New Orleans. The Biloxi area is hardly mentioned

The third episode had LaToya interviewed. Tells you everything you need to know about this documentary.

Literally walking around the disaster zone with a long cigar in every shot. Dude obviously thought he was Curtis Lemay

Guess I wasn’t the only one to see it changed as the episodes went in.
Also didn’t know it was spike until E2

Spike Lee directed it? That makes a lot of sense

skip episode 3
Blame must be put on those who clearly conspired to keep down multiple generations from attending school, getting educated, and working hard to make a better life for themselves and their families
On the other hand, those crafty Vietnamese seem to be doing just fine.

I watched the Hulu doc on Katrina.
yesterday started to watch the Netflix doc - 5 min in I am seeing the same guy from St. Bernard being profiled in the Netflix doc that was profiled in the Hulu doc
immediately turned it off

if there is a watchable Katrina documentary out there, i havent found it. every single one of them pushes the same political narrative which is so obviously bullshite. in every single one of them, New Orleans is shown to be this beautiful, harmonious, Wakanda-like utopia prior to Katrina which whites used to bring down the city. it's infuriating because you know half the country watches this shite and gobbles it up as fact because they are either 1) too stupid to think critically or 2) it gives them just that one little degree of plausibility that they need to validate everything they already believed and want to believe anyways.

First two episodes were somewhat interesting, actual story telling. I'm not going to pretend to be a Katrina expert, so I don't know how much of that was propaganda.
But the 3rd episode was straight white hate content. Like, some of the most blatant "frick the white man" content that I've ever tried to sit through.
Also, just as a side note. It's crazy how people do not understand topography and the role it plays in building a society. Of course the oldest parts of the city didn't flood. Almost like the land was surveyed and they started building on the highest ground, and it was built out from there.
The we wuz kangs faction of this country should know this, since their crowd is responsible for all of the engineering and design that went into building the cities and ports of the 17th and 18th century.

My wife has a lot of family in Gulfport who were devastated and she asks the same thing, why is there never any attention to the MS Gulf Coast?
I kind of get it though. What happened east of New Orleans was pure disaster porn. You can find a few hundred thousand individual stories worth hearing, but there isn't an overall story to be told outside of just showing the devastation, not to minimize the loss there.
What makes New Orleans different, is that there's more story about what happened after the storm.
The gulf coast is "just the storm", but New Orleans is about the levees breaking , the government failures at every level, the societal breakdown, etc.
