In the summer of 2006, Still Picking Up the Piece’s was filmed by Patti Brown, a Red Cross Volunteer, and edited by myself Shaun Boyte and sent out on DVD. It was a short 20 minute documentary that included incredible interviews from survivors of Hurricane Katrina. It also showed the vast amount of damage still left to clean up and showed how desperate and thankful the citizens of the Gulf were of volunteers. When we sent out the 100 copies across the nation, we got an unbelievable response and word that it had encouraged dozens of groups to go help out and a few large donations. But two years later, the people from the documentary are seeking help once more, so I am going back to tell the stories as our media has completely forgotten so many are without homes still and without ways to kick start their lives again.
While I have contacts who appeared in the first documentary with great stories, I am still seeking opinions on what you believe should be covered. If you have time to stop by the site, please do to find more details, or donate if you feel like you would like to be a part of the project.
Thanks for your comments and ideas

I heard FEMA provided shelters to people that were made from compressed wood and glue. The glue fumes were so strong that people could bearly stand being inside the shelters.
I also heard that HAARP may have steered the storm and/or added energy to the hurricane, making it more destructive.
I'm not sure where I heard the glue story
Here are some sites about katrina/HAARP

I can't verify any of this personally.
But hopefully you'll find someone who can.
Goodluck with your film-

Except of a quote on April 1997 at the conference on terrorism, Weapons of Mass Destruction:
"...an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off eathquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves."
-William Cohen, Secretary of Defense (1997-2001)-
