[quote]The administration guidance cited instances of discrimination in Gulf Coast states after Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita in 2005, such as “numerous media reports [that] showed images of African Americans stranded on roofs in New Orleans.” “These images exposed significant inequalities in access to emergency response and recovery efforts,” said the guidance.[/quote] Well, considering in New Orleans the black population is 3x that of whites, the extremely low areas that flooded where mostly black neighborhoods, and, sad but true, more whites had the means to leave the city and go to hurricane shelters in North Louisiana why is it surprising that there would be images of them stranded on roofs? Years ago when the Mississippi flooded Minnesota and Iowa there where a bunch of images of white people on roofs too.
