Hurricane Katrina
How With Theme Connects with Hurricane Katrina A total of 500,000 people responded to people in distress in new Orleans after the hurricane hit. These brave people not only responded because it was the right thing to do but because they needed to. if it weren't for the people new Orleans may not be back on its feet, but because they did New Orleans was able to make a full recovery. The theme is how good always over comes evil, and in this event it is very present that the good in people overcame the damage from the hurricane and stood for the people that needed it most.
