I created this campaign out of frustration. New Orleans and the Gulf still looks like a damn bomb hit it and it seems as though most folks have forgotten about it until the "anniversary" comes up. I was once told by a good friend to watch how often I create from a space of pain, but on this issue right here, I don't mind having it as a notch on my anger belt.*The tag line reads: Ignorance hinders progress. Renew Orleans.
**Sidebar: Why do we say the word "anniversary" on the annual remembrance of sad happening? The word gives off such a happy vibe and in the context of natural disasters and ill shit the word "anniversary" should have no place. That's just me, though.
my home girls daddy was clean for 17 years
now he's back on that shit
after the storm hit
and we're worried about another celebrities meltdown
and we're worried about Georgia gettin' bombed
and we're worried about temporary relief at the gas pump
and some how we forgot about those on the gulf coast
who are still attempting to put their lives back together
while havin' nightmares every time they close their eyes

there ought to be some kind of "people's agency" that pushes campaigns like this out.
