Some might argue that this is the very danger of living in a region like NOLA where the Mississippi delta overflows its banks too easily. And while this is true to a degree, my brief experiences there show two other stories: that the corruption of different institutions often expands the suffering of those who live there, and that the residents we meet are hard-living, wholesomely honest, and grateful.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row make_fullwidth=”off” use_custom_width=”off” width_unit=”on” use_custom_gutter=”on” custom_padding=”50px|||” padding_mobile=”on” allow_player_pause=”off” parallax=”off” parallax_method=”off” make_equal=”off” parallax_1=”off” parallax_method_1=”off” column_padding_mobile=”on” custom_padding_tablet=”17px|||” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_width_px=”830px” parallax_2=”off” parallax_method_2=”off” gutter_width=”2″ background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial”][et_pb_column type=”3_4″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.chisnell.com\/interact\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/12\/altfeb2008.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”off” url_new_window=”off” use_overlay=”off” animation=”fade_in” sticky=”on” align=”left” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” _builder_version=”3.0.105″ show_bottom_space=”on” \/][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_divider color=”#aeaeac” show_divider=”on” divider_style=”solid” divider_position=”top” hide_on_mobile=”off” custom_css_main_element=”width:130px;” \/][et_pb_text admin_label=”Photo Caption” background_layout=”light” text_text_color=”#363636″ border_style=”solid” text_font=”PT Serif||on||” text_font_size=”16″ text_line_height=”1em” custom_margin=”20px||0px|” max_width=”130px” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial” _builder_version=”3.0.105″]<\/p>\n Our first foray to NOLA, 2008.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”row” make_fullwidth=”off” use_custom_width=”on” width_unit=”on” use_custom_gutter=”off” custom_padding=”0px|||” padding_mobile=”on” allow_player_pause=”off” parallax=”off” parallax_method=”off” make_equal=”off” parallax_1=”off” parallax_method_1=”off” parallax_2=”off” parallax_method_2=”off” column_padding_mobile=”on” custom_width_px=”620px” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Part 3 Text” background_layout=”light” max_width=”620px” text_font_size=”20″ text_text_color=”#363636″ border_style=”solid” custom_margin=”46px||0px|” text_line_height=”1.5em” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_size=”initial” _builder_version=”3.0.105″ text_font_size_tablet=”16″]<\/p>\n Twice we\u2019ve met lower 9th Ward Katrina survivor<\/span> Robert Green<\/span><\/a> who still works there to assist residents in finding homes.
