From children to volunteers, they discuss the troubles that were left behind after the waters resided: the violent and militarized response, the housing crisis, homeless situation, difficulties in obtaining financial assistance/relief funds, how the youth have been mentally affected, and the grassroots movement to rebuild the city and their lives.
