Assignment 4-Cameron Combs

Tragedies occur on a daily basis in our world, but on August 29, 2005, noone in the world was more in shock than those living in New Orleans. On this day, Hurricane Katrina hit this area and destroyed everything in its path. As citizens of the United States watched the news on this morning, they may have seen a picture similar to the one below. While looking at this image does not make you experience the same terror that was occurring during this time, it sums up the severity of the destruction taking place. Thousands were killed and millions lost their homes as a result of this disaster, but there was nothing that could be done to prevent it. Seeing images such as the one below gave Americans a sense of hopelessness in that they want to do all that they can to help those people in New Orleans, but all they could do was watch it all unfold. All of the emotions and memories that people in New Orleans and all throughout America connect to this event can be summed up into this one image.
