Katrina resources online

Here are links to some online government documents about Hurricane Katrina we thought might be of interest in light of this weekend's symposium:

The Federal Response to Hurricane Katrina: Lessons Learned
This full-text document outlines the failures of the federal response from the perspective of the executive branch.

A Failure of Initiative
This full-text document contains the final report from the Select Bipartisan Committee assembled to analyze the federal response. Appendix 8, Cynthia McKinney's supplementary report, contains useful background on poverty and racism in New Orleans prior to the hurricane.

Resources from across the government, via FirstGov.gov
This search provides links to documents across the government. Use the tabs on the left to sort by topic, agency, or source.
