00:00Before the storm came, me and my cousin, we ride our bikes through the Trumet area.

00:08It never crossed my mind that would be my last bike ride in my community.

00:19Hurricane Katrina is now a Category 5 storm.

00:23They've built the levee system now to withstand a Category 3.

00:30I woke up.

00:33My neighborhood had 20 feet of water.

00:39I put my first granddaughter on the roof, turned around to get her two sisters, and she fell into the water and disappeared.

00:49We survived Katrina.

00:51When them levees broke, that's what did us in.

00:57The government's levees failed, and they left us.

01:02And to say that clear, they left us.

01:06Federal, state, and local officials just were completely unprepared for something they knew was going to happen.

01:48You can look and see that this shit was racial.

01:52Is anybody going to come help us?

01:54We're a part of a culture that we want a hero.

01:56There's no blueprint for 80% of a major city being underwater.

01:59There's no blueprint for that.

02:0220 years later, this shit is still real.

02:0520 years to life, the time should fit the crime.

02:08Human lives cut down and out, left in waters to rot.

02:1320 years to life, and my stomach still holds a knot.

02:26He also took place a long time before us, theven.

02:27The
