Please join us to celebrate the launch of our anthology Counting Our Blessings - a book that reclaims the Katrina narrative through the lens of humanity and hope.

Edited by Momma Carol Bebelle, Counting Our Blessings is a journey through the lives of 41 New Orleanians in the aftermath of the Katrina disaster. Their experiences and reflections offer a clarifying view of the assistance, promises, faith, relief, opportunities, compassion and empathy that helped to catapult them through the distress to better times. The collection works together to reveal the power of a bitter night in the deepest darkness, and it also teaches us the promise of humanity provoked into action by the sight of our fellow human beings in danger and distress as we continue to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the storm.
