DESCRIPTION:DOS AMERICAS: THE RECONSTRUCTION OF NEW ORLEANS\nA new documentary by 
 Upheaval Productions\n\nPost-Katrina reconstruction is still in progress 
 throughout the Gulf Coast, with much of the City of New Orleans still in 
 ruins. This documentary focuses on those rebuilding this city through 
 interviews with some of the estimated 100,000 Latino migrant laborers who 
 have converged in this area over the past two and a half years. Despite 
 terrible working conditions, massive fraud, a housing crisis, severe 
 harassment by law enforcement, and very limited resources, New Orleans’ 
 Latino community has mushroomed since the storm and is establishing an 
 infrastructure proportional to its size.\n\nTake a look at how this 
 community is organizing to defend itself against numerous injustices and 
 the attempts to bridge the gap between themselves as new residents and the 
 pre-Katrina population, all within the extremely unique and tragic context 
 of post-Katrina New Orleans.\n\nThe film will be followed by a discussion 
 with one of the filmmakers!\n\nAlso performing will be local spoken 
 word/hip-hop artists MexTape and World Domination. \n\n***¡Presentado en 
 inglés y español!***\n\nFRIDAY, OCTOBER 24TH at 7PM\nat DE BUG COMMUNITY
