Description
Panelists Tracie L. Washington (Louisiana Justice Institute), Reilly Morse (Mississippi Center for Justice), and John M. Barry (author, Rising Tide) discuss the successes and failures of the recovery effort after Hurricane Katrina including the role of individuals, non-profit organizations, and pro bono lawyers. Also discussed are the implications of Katrina and its aftermath on both domestic and foreign policy, and the role of the federal government in assisting recovery efforts. One of several "academic activities" held at the University of Mississippi preceding the first presidential debate of 2008.
