A Katrina Retrospect - Black &
White
(43
minutes)
The Media claims the slow
response to New Orleans, during
Katrina, was a Racial issue. St
Bernard Parish, a predominantly
white community just five miles from
the heart of New Orleans, was completely
flooded 24 hours before New Orleans.
People here had already drowned
while the Media's top story was the
hole in the Superdome's roof. |

MusiCares’ response to
Hurricanes Rita and Katrina
The hurricanes of 2005 threatened to destroy the
heart and soul of the greater Gulf Coast region: its
rich and vibrant music community. MusiCares
understood the effects of these disasters in a
unique way. Since our inception 16 years ago, it has
been our mission to assist music industry people
facing unexpected crises. We met this particular
crisis with the authority and insight that comes
with experience in assisting thousands of music
industry clients through the years. On September 1,
2005, we established the MusiCares Hurricane Relief
Fund with an initial donation of $1 million dollars
in partnership with The Recording Academy to aid
music industry individuals affected by the storms.
This fund was also the recipient of numerous
fundraising efforts, large and small, which gave us
the financial resources necessary to assist an
unprecedented number of applicants who applied for
help.
MusiCares’ initial assistance provided funds for
food and clothing, gasoline and other transportation
expenses, crucial cell phone service, relocation
costs, medicines and other critical supplies. Since
September 1, 2005, MusiCares has disbursed over
$3.5 million in financial
assistance for basic needs, as well as instruments
and other supplies to more than 3,500
individuals directly affected by
the disasters.
In a 24 hour period, this video was
viewed over 50,000 times using 1,500 Gigs of
bandwidth. that's right, FIFTEEN HUNDRED GIGS
OF BANDWIDTH!
Hostgator was forced to disable my account
due to the problems this amount of traffic caused
their servers, not to mention the added expense for
the bandwidth.
Hostgator
was charged over $500.00 for the extra bandwidth usage.
Had they not acted quickly, closing down my account,
that figure could've grown much greater. The extra
costs for that bandwidth ultimately is my
responsibility, OUCH! The Good people at
Hostgator,
knowing our situation here in St Bernard Parish,
agreed to allow my account to remain active and to
cover the cost of that extra bandwidth, BRAVO!!
For your hosting
needs I would appreciate you considering
Hostgator.com
This is a company that
deserves our support
If you enjoyed
the video, consider
Emailing
Hostgator a short
note thanking them for the bandwidth donation to
our cause
