I've been doing a lot of prep since Bethany came home from NOLA in March, but I think once I get there, it'll be like a nuclear bomb exploding behind a sheet of paper. I know I won't hold, but I've been doing a lot of reading and studying into the situation down there, so I at least know, intellectually, what to expect.

And as for the racial and class issues, I've read and heard more than enough of that. Like she and I both say, the more we think things have changed, the more wrong we realize we are. Hearing and seeing things like that make me physically ill, and I'm out to stop it.
