I am a lifelong resident of New Orleans 9th ward neighborhood, which is in my opinion, a beautiful city. People who live here complain about moving to other cities because not much is being done in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. I always tell them that no matter where you live, CRIME, HOMELESSNESS and RACISM remains the problem. It is up to us as a people to change that.
If the world were mine for a day, I would Put An End To Violent Crime, Provide More Jobs And Better Education.
