"As all of us saw... there is... deep, persistent poverty in this region [with] roots in a history of racial discrimination... We have a duty to confront this poverty with bold action.'' Nope not a scene from Selma (and Martin Luther King) but George W. Bush after the hurricane Katrina (2005), in which over 1800 people died, many because they were poor, elderly or infirm - goodness but that's a tragedy of out of sight out of mind. This is a picture of a diary that I was given permission to photograph. I am going to leave this post at that - much to ponder.
