29 August 2007. Lower 9th Ward, New Orleans, Louisiana.
Second anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. Jason Freeman sits on the steps of 1837 Jordan Ave in the Lower 9th Ward. The steps are all that remain of his house after it was deluged by the levee breach just a block from the steps. He has gathered with friends and family for a BBQ to remember those who perished in the terrible flooding. Jason hopes to rebuild. Many residents are struggling to return to the still derelict and decimated Lower 9th Ward.
