Banksy does New Orleans


There are images up everywhere from Banksy's trip to New Orleans and I still think he's a genius - cop the images here.

The real reason that I'm posting is that as I type this Hurricane Gustav is heading through New Orleans - three years on from Katrina. I watched a lot of footage last time around and the effect it had on the residents and I have to say that it was terrifying stuff.

As useless as my thoughts are in this situation I pray that it doesn't cause the same destruction as Katrina.

I was gonna post this. its dope.

Has anyone seen the film about Hurricane Katrina that Spike Lee directed... 'When The Levees Broke'?

Its a touching film. Some people may cry if they watch it.
