so much wrong.
i've never been so ashamed of this country. the racism. the neglect of poor americans. the way the media has filmed this, even. the use of the word "refugee" to describe american citizens in their own city. the fact that bus service and amtrak service stopped on saturday, while the evacuation was ordered on sunday, and no options were given to people who didn't have the means to escape the city of new orleans- a city where more than 25% of the occupants live under the poverty level. the focus on looting. i'm just sick. it's FRIDAY. it's been 4 days. american citizens are dying because they don't have WATER. IN AMERICA. what the fuck is going on?
