Jeremiah Knox: Kelman's New Orleans

Kelman's idea on rebuilding New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina is rather pessimistic. Although it is not directly stated by Kelman, it is apparent that he thinks very negatively on the subject. He points out that the levees of New Orleans do not provide adequate defense against flooding. In fact, Kelman states that the levees only turn the city into a bowl. Kelman leads to the idea that if New Orleans were to be rebuilt, then there have to be better defense mechanisms to protect the city.
