Cars flooded in Hurricane Katrina are gathered ...

To rebuild a city, you have to know who's back and who's not. Tess Vigeland talks to New Orleans demographer Allison Plyer about the state of the Crescent City three years after Hurricane Katrina.

    Ms. Vigeland asks the right questions. The ones we want the answers to. She paints a picture for us to view. One that screams New Orleans MATTERS. Never should help come so slowly again. Thank you Tess for your insightful view, a view that matters to me as a listener. Karen K
