I went down to kind of do people rebuilding, in New Orleans.
And I really thought that was important for me, because of my emotional state could
take it. That okay, here's something that's going up, instead of coming down.
And as for as much information as you've got,
you still wasn't ready for what the actuality was. New Orleans was fairly
empty a year after, when I go down there, there was nobody there. This is a horrendous
thing that's happened to the city,
you need to photograph that.
This is sort of a memorial, and just people kind of trying to keep people
remembering, and keep people's heads in the right place about what this is about.
So not only that have we suffered this disaster, but nobody's coming out and
dealing with it.
I was just overwhelmed. I said, man, we don't hear about this in New York City.
People still have no clue about what's going on down here.
And there are families trying to live amongst all of this, and trying to kind of restructure
this, and say hey man we're trying to get this city back, to where
the city that we knew and loved.
And you hear a lot of different stories about people who just said, hey, I can't make
it and I don't think I'm going to go back.
