Snippet: Spike Lee's 'When the Levees Broke' Documentary


When I wrote in the London SE8 To New Orleans Louisiana post that its pretty difficult to articulate the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina to the entire Golf Coast of America, I was wrong, for Spike Lee has done so perfectly. The above is taken from When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts which is a 2 part, 4 hour long (in total) documentary on Hurricane Katrina (and the failure of US Government), written, produced and directed by Spike Lee. Incredibly powerful and arguably Spike Lee at his finest (who else can document the plight of Black America better that Lee?) , as I said before pictures tell a thousand stories.
