one thing we learned from hurricane katrina, people really rely on their portable electronics and their phone. we say here's a charging station tied up to the generation. the essential coffeepot. >> yes. >> maybe a computer, you can check your e-mail with. >> yes. we have our charging station here. and then over here you can see we've got a whole variety of things, including the all-important different tags. so, lawrence, do you want to talk a little about the tags? >> sure. people want to know what do these tags mean. is my building safe or unsafe. these are the city owe initial tags. staying in your home doesn't require that you get a tag. it just means that you use common sense and maybe get help from people who might be around who can help you evaluate whether it's a safe place to stay. >> you might want to know because regular city services are disrupted, you might want to know when trash pick up is, if you need to get clean water, et cetera. also in the neighborhood support center, that kind of information would be available and we've got a little of that up here. >> trash pick up

what spur has done is look at that in terms of recovery and in new orleans with katrina and lost many of the people, hasn't recovered the building stock. it's not a good situation. i think we can agree and in san we want to rebuild well and quickly after a major disaster so we have defined what that means for our life lines. how do we need the gasolines to perform and water perform after an earthquake and the building stock as well, so we have the goal of 95% of our homes to be ready for shelter in place after a major earthquake, and that way people can stay within the city. we don't lose our work force. we don't lose the people that make san francisco so special. we keep everybody here and that allow us to recover our economy, and everything because it's so interdependent. >> so that is a difficult goal but i think we can achieve it over the long time so thank you very much for hosting us and hosting this great exhibit, and thank you very much for joining ♪ >> welcome to hamilton recreation and aquatics center. it is the only facility that has an integrated swimming pool and recrea

responded to many major hurricanes including andrew in 1992 and katrina in 2005 has provided me with a unique understanding of how we can better position fema to respond when disaster strikes. as we all know, last year was a particularly devastating one for disasters. with 17 storms during the atlantic hurricane responsible for over $200 billion in damages and a death toll in the thousands according to most estimates. these are astounding and horrifying numbers and a focus should remain on helping those who lost so much. having sat in that chair, i know the challenges faced. but while we are helping those in need it's beyond time to give serious consideration to why we continue to leave lives, homes, communities vulnerable. the evidence is simply overwhelming. better land use and increased mitigation the can dramatically reduce devastation. we must reward communities who invest in resiliency and stronger building codes. as lives are on the line, we must provide assistance, get the nonflammable and seismic standards right the first time. and make sure they're in force. the cost share

of course, famously nato came to our aid after 9/11, and less famously so in the aftermath of katrina, helping to coordinate a rescue mission. craig, all of this is pennies on the dollars, really peanuts when you think about nato's core mission. that's the mission of deterrence. nato's presence on the world stage helps us prevent, deter a colossal war that we would get drawn into costing us untold sums in blood and treasure. >> stand by. president trump a live look in brussels as the president and first lady melania trump arrive for this dinner here in brussels. again, president trump arriving with the first lady, getting ready to walk down that blue carpet. he is shaking the hands there of the prime minister of belgium. we've seen a number of other world leaders head in. we don't know if president trump is the last. but again, will have this dinner. at some point perhaps during this hour, we're told we'll get one of those family photos as they are called. you may recall the last time there was one of these nato family photos, there was that awkward incident, shall we say -- awkward i

attend of may, stitch fix's ceo, katrina lake spoke at recode's annual code confidence and spoke with a level of candor that is rare for a chief executive lake admitted she was disappointed with the ipo. i'm going to quote her as saying absolutely disappointing and the people didn't really realize or know how to value the stock right out of the gate that is true it gained just 15 cents on the first day before surging to 22 bucks and change a few days later. lake was also adamant that stitch fix hasn't been trying sell itself to amazon. investigators don't like that kind of stock and that's why the stock lost 3.5% after she spoke. however, maybe people should have been paying closing attention to the rest of lake's a lot of value in itself fast forward a little over a week later and the company reports a stung figure higher than expected revenue of 29% year to year and acceleration from the first two quarters as a public company the company had 2.7 million active clients an astounding 30% increase they've rolled out a new game. it's called style shuffle that helps them collect even mor

joining us now capri, and katrina. i had a theory who president obama was in office he would mention reparations. it done come along, but i see what tom perez did, it is intriguing this is the most solid vot voter bloc that democs have, yet i see black people not getting much in return. >> we do you know rely on the african-american vote as a huge part of the coalition. i think it well overdue, tom per session righperez is right to a, democrats need to come forward, show what we have to offer. we have to come and show there is a lot, we have seen is you know back in 2016, about i believe it was 88% of rav can african-americans voted for democrat hillary clinton, 93% in 2012. overall participation as reduced as well according to a pew research study. the real question, is how do we reengage the african-american community back into the fold. you know it doesn't seem necessarily that the republicans have gotten them, only 8% voted for trump, but there an opportunity there if we don't step up to the plate. charles: katrina

and lying over all of this, this is something that you'll relate to very much, after katrina, there were so many evangelicals who i went to church with that we were -- we would do daily relieves after katrina over to mississippi and louisiana and they were shattered. their faith in george w. bush were shattered by what they saw on the ground in mississippi and louisiana that nothing was being done. well, the question, where are the children that mika has repeated over and over again. i'm hearing from evangelicals that supported him, this is not who we are. >> well, and you can hear about the russia investigation constantly, but in my opinion, that's not going to move voters. but my mom, my sister-in-law, they voted for trump. they do not like these babies who are separated from their parents. and that's a story that is just an albatross, as it should be. torturing children on the border of our great nation. and it's something that donald trump can't run away from. >> but they can vote according to their pocketbooks, steve ratner, and for that, many are doing you would say pretty well. >>

and we get the candidates we want, and then a katrina comes. and ideologically they're lined up but don't know anything about leading. here you have ron desantis, dressing his baby in "make america great" outfits and reading bedtime stories, it's cute, clever. he's playing the trump card. what's going to happen when a category 5 storm goes across the i-4 corridor? will desantis be able to deal with that as well as putnam? no. nobody would begin to think that. it's lunacy. not just talking about this race, but this is how -- people ask, how do we get the katrinas, the poor leadership we get? and it is the stupid, dumbing-down ideologically on the democratic side and on the republican side. are they pro-choice? are they anti-gun? whatever on the democratic side? and same thing on the republican side. and nobody's looking for, are they a leader that can get my family evacuated when a category 5 hurricane comes in tampa bay? >> just to say we're going to have that problem, and didn't we already have that problem for two reasons? one, the risk of so

maria: joining me is katrina pearson, good to see you this morning. your reaction to the president's statement? >> the president has set a number of times he does believe the russians metals in the election. a lot of people created facebook pages to push propaganda, not just the russians but i do grow tired of people holding donald trump to a standard that was nonexistent to previous presidents. this all occurred under the obama administration and not once was president obama asked to publicly rebuke vladimir putin or hold him accountable for what they discovered to be this, quote, meddling, donald trump carrying the weight of all previous administrations including members of congress's actions and that is not fair. maria: this is getting a little goofy at this point. i understand the russians have been undermining or trying to undermine the west for decades but at this point there are real issues to be talking about in the media is in a frenzy about are they meddling right now, where they meddling 5 minutes ago? but the fact donald trump is continuin

george bush didn't cause katrina. this was an intentional hurricane but what we have learned from this is that the administration's chaos can be overcome by our constitution. i'm glad that my state is in court suing to protect these children. we need to have guardians of the constitution, i'm glad we're fighting tooth and nail. if we speak up, we can win. donald trump folded like a cheap suit when the american people -- both republicans and democrats -- were offended by this policy so we know we can win these battles if we speak up and are resilient. >> i want to ask about i.c.e. there is a groundswell of democrats calling for i.c.e. to be abolished because of this. do you think i.c.e. should be abolished? >> i voted against i.c.e. in the first place. i've been a critic of it and we consider reorganization but we need to understand this. we can't let donald trump get off by putting a new name on a new agency because he is the source of the problem. >> but if you get rid of i.c.e., what do you have? what's the point of

hurricane katrina changed the whole game. for the first time since 1718, we had a completely clean slate. well, sort of. it was kind of messy after the flood but the slate was clean. we had an opportunity to do two things. number one, the populist of the city realized how endangered our life here really is. it all seemed to matter more. it seemed to matter more that it was preserved and the practice di -- tradition was being carried forward. based on that change of population the food began to change. we have seen a greater diversion in the kinds of food served, the kind of restaurants we have and an explosion in the restaurant business like nothing new orleans has ever seen before. almost 14 years after hurricane katrina, we have twice as many restaurants operating in new orleans as we did before the storm. when visitors come here, the most important thing is they have an authentic food experience whether it's trying a poor boy sandwich or having a bowl of gumbo. trying to pick crawfish for the first time. it's all delicious

his home was damaged during katrina. it was under 12 feet of water. once the water receded it was damaged. the legs of this had broken off. the entire piano was just really in a horrible way. it had been conserved but it's not playable. it's been conserved and brought back to its original appearance. they said that if they tried to make it play, it would not have been the same piano so we didn't want to lose the nature of the piano. >> fats domino was from new orleans. he influenced really all of early rock 'n roll. he was really one of his biggest fans. he came here in 65 i believe. they asked if they could meet with fats domino and there's the famous photo of the beatles with fats domino. he had many friends, many musicians he performed with or who stayed with him during his career, they went on to influence many of the others. they created their own music and their own band. they had a strong influence on the music here in new orleans. less than a year ago was a major blow to the city, and to his family of course, he left a wonderful legacy though.

what was this neighborhood before katrina? >> it was more working class, more african-americans, more nativeborn local folks, more children in the streets, more renters. after katrina, many of those renter families got jostled out because of the whole disruption to l ives here. >> were you living here during katrina? >> yes. in fact, we stayed in our house in bywater. we witnessed the entire day and week. katrina day, august 29, was incredibly intense. eveningeuphoric that that we had survived. we did not realize what was going on, because we were in a dark house cut off from the rest of the world, that the levees were breached. only the next day, biking around, surveying what happened did i start to surmise. this is not me that disaster, this is a full-blown catastrophe. was 10 times worse than the last. by the time we got out friday, the conditions were apocalyptic. you are in the lower ninth ward here. this was the hardest hit of all the katrina affected areas in louisiana and mississippi. this was the hardest hit because i

es que las misma agencia apoyÓ en condiciones similares durante dos aÑos a los oyentes del huracÁn katrina. mamá, ya no quiero estar mÁs. fema justifica sus acciones. dicen que los hogares restantes han recibido asistencia de alquiler o reparaciÓn. simplemente no son elegibles para la asistencia adicional. la realidad es que en las calles de orlando estas cartascuentan una historia diferente. de familia van a estar en la calle. fema dice haber invertido $432,000,000 sÓlo para solucionar pruebas de vivienda de la portorriqueÑo. esa ayuda se ha quedado corta. desde ilia: ya nos acordamos ni a patricia con un adelanto de lo que tenemos en la ediciÓn nocturna. patricia: se siguen conociendo historias del drama de la separaciÓn de las familias. los pequeÑos habÍan huido junto con su mamÁ. habÍan huido ante las amenazas de su propio padre. gracias, vamos a hacer una pausa y regresamos con el adiÓs de ronaldo y messi del mundial. nathalie juarez.... arrancamos con la informacion... argentina y leo messi quedaron fuera del mundial al perder 4-3 ante francia... kylian mbappe fue la figu

this is far greater than hurricane katrina. we are look at something that would be brought about technological disaster that would be comparable to war. one of the problems with spent fuel is it's sort of unresolved is the fact that the nuclear regulatory commission has been allowing the reactor operators to irradiate the fuel longer by increasing the amount of uranium 235 from about 3 1/2 to almost 5 percent in content. what this does is it builds up a great deal more radioactivity products as well as fissile materials and this stuff is very hot, and the nrc does not have a technical basis to support the safe transport of this material, and it's likely to be trapped at reactor sites until we figure out whether this stuff can be safely moved. what the research is showing that the longer you keep the stuff in a reactor and irradiate, the thinner it becomes, the more likely it corrodes. it becomes very vulnerable to movement and vibrations, and so -- there's no technical basis in terms of information to tell you about the levels

but with katrina, we've seen a big lift in the president's approval rating. there's slight decline in the president'laapprovating last week. to me the tribal warre has become so rigid it's almost as if nothing can movanything. while we see images which should be horrific of anybody of any political persuasion, it doesn't seem to move politics. >> i think that's right. the place where i want to pus on this -- and it's not about the politics, but it's about the false choice weare being offered. what the trump administration said is we have two choices, one is we can treat families unimaginably cruelly by separating them from their children or detaining the whole family for as long as they want to, or we cannot enforce our laws. both to have the first two options are illegal. courts ruled against the indefinite detention of the family and sparating children from the family, at this point. they're doing somethinnow is not allowed by the courts. they're saying, on the other hand, we have to enforce the law. we could give ankle bracelets which we've done before. fo

to install these trapezoidal concrete blocks to help rebuild a narrow peninsula damaged by hurricane katrina. since the nearly one-mile of artificial reef s installed in 2010, the shore has grown dramatically, creating a vrant ecosystem. >> so, it's a very healthy environment. we have documented that oysters lon settle here. and also, a of birds will come over to hang out here, as well. and also, there's a lot of fish that come to these blocks because they find a structure. so, all in all, combining marshes with pyramids is a very effective way to create living shorelines. >> sreenivasan: and there's a lot of research behind this. before these concrete pyramids were deployed in the bay, they e were tested here, at a wol at the nearby university of south alabama. engineers tested scale models of the sign. here, they can adjust the size and frequency the waves to simulate real-world conditions. bret webb is a pro coastal engineering and has shnsulted on dozens of living elines on the gulf coast. >> testing allowed us to say, trmber one, that the original sizeture would not really work well for

is a national model now that is used to mitigate social capitol loss after disaster it was used in katrina it's about getting people together to shift out of the victim mode into the survivor mode by together for the common good. what are the bigger problems outside yourself and drawing you outside yourself, you actually start healing your own trauma. feeling communities are only part of the democracy crisis and also a fundamental problem with our governance and this is legal battle stretched over the deck kaisdz. people in cordova began to ask what is going on how did corporations get this big -- where they can manipulate the the legal system i thought that was a really good question. so i went to look for answers. in last chapter of not one drop which is a new beginning, and to move into the chapter i discovered that we have to actually go back into time and recall -- that our founders envisioned our governance as three branches. a legislature that makes the law a judiciary branch that interprets the law and an executive branch that enforces the law. and after all of this, are we the peo
