we have seen that definitely new orleans. they are still in new orleans a very long way to go. there are a lot of neighborhoods that would in effect from an infusion of money and new ideas and it would remain to be seen whether there was an effective protection in place for the original population is being forced out. there is not. there are non-profits and philanthropic groups that address those issues big-time. there are community groups that spend a great amount of their energy on protecting against the ravages of gentrification but it's not formally any sense of government policy as far as i know. >> let me quickly add it to try in the book i make a distinction between gentrification and displacement. gentrification has many positive sides to it. it's that displacement issue that is the real problem and there are solutions in burying forms but the real missing element is the public commitment to those solutions because government would rather give tax incentives and all sorts of financial benefits to the large developers but not comparable advantages to the individual prope

too dangerous to go into new orleans. well mr. speaker, i just want to tell you. while the national guard the red cross, and others were scared to go into new orleans, i, myself with another councilmember, we were driving a mini van into new orleans filled with water with no security, no protection and the only thing we encountered were grateful people who were looking for some help, some water, some food, and some direction as to how and when this recovery would start. and what i don't want is people to look at new orleans and remember back to those days and just believe the misinformation about all of those other things. and while i'm correcting that let me also touch on why people didn't leave. and many people have said people just chose not to leave for various reasons, they didn't know better. all of that is absolutely untrue also. the biggest reason people didn't leave was that the warnings were weak. and they were not enough notice. i remember watching the news and watching the mayor of new orleans say, well, i'm s

let me start off by saying something about new orleans and the people of new orleans. the people of new orleans are a very, very resilient people and it started from the beginning of the history of new orleans up until today. we started off, and you can go back to 1788 when there was a fire in new orleans that burned 856 of the 1100 buildings that made up new orleans. that was 80% of the city burned. six years later 212 buildings burned but the good thing about the people of new orleans, we always pick up ourselves up to rebuild and make a better life. go to 185 when we had a yellow fever and epidemic. almost 8,000 people died. and if you look at the time between 185 and 1905 45,000 people lost their lives. the city picked itself up and dusted itself off. then fast forward to 1965, and that was the year that hurricane betsy devastated the city of new orleans and that was the first storm to wrack up the cost of $1 billion in damage and i will talk about hurricanes katrina and rita that hit new orleans and devastated the entire gulf coast but significantly damaged new or

when we come back, new orleans mayor mitch landrieu. ♪ mark: as the 10 year anniversary of new orleans -- hurricane katrina approaches, new orleans mayor mitch landrieu came by to talk with us about what he has seen in new orleans since 2010. we talked about the storm. mitch landrieu: this was a man-made disaster. it is when the levees were broken that the city was compromised. post-katrina we have a $14.5 billion levy system. john: mark: mark: if katrina hit today what would happen? mayor landrieu: we would be safe and fine. the levees are much stronger than they were before. it is not a guarantee -- bigger storms are coming our way. by the way, new orleans is really the nation's canary in the coal mine. we are an example from miami to new york, which suffered from sandy. amongst all these natural disasters and terrorist attacks, you have to build a more resilient city, so when you build back, you have to build back stronger. the magnificent thing that the people have done is they didn't build the city back the way it was -- they built it the way it should have always been. as you see

new orleans is an important part of this country. we are thankful for the people of american for helping us stand up. the katrina 10 is going to thank people for helping us and to look forward to our 300 anniversary in three years. we were here before the rest of the country. we want to be a model for the rest of america and all of the things we are doing in terms of education, health care, and resilience. how cities learn how to live through difficult times and stand themselves back up. mark: i love what you are doing on education and health care. pre-katrina you were not a leader. mitch: we were not a leader in much of anything. new orleans is an ascendant city. we still have problems as anybody else. we were at worst and we are going to first grade bloomberg has recognized us brady wall street journal. more people are moving into the city then leaving. gdp is growing faster. our jobs are going faster. our education system has been recalibrated. it is an amazing story of the only surviving but turning yourself around and becoming t
