Who was the first group to bring hot food to New Orleans after Katrina?
It wasn’t FEMA. It wasn’t the Red Cross. It wasn’t the National Guard.
According the the city of New Orleans and the disaster relief agencies in the Gulf States, Food Not Bombs was the only group coordinating food to the survivors on a daily basis.
Strangely, the mass media managed to miss this obvious story. This video focuses on relief efforts in Waveland, Mississippi, but Food Not Bombs was active (and is still active) in New Orleans
