DESCRIPTION:Presented as part of the Human Rights Film Festival at USF:\n\nDOS 
 AMERICAS: The Reconstruction of New Orleans\n\n* w/ comments by Professors 
 Jorge Aquino & Ron Sundstrom\nand a response by filmmaker David 
 Zlutnick\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 had converged in 
 this area over the two and a half years prior. 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\nThursday February 26th 6:30PM\nUniversity of 
 San Francisco Presentation Theater\n2350 Turk Boulevard \n(btw. Annapolis 
 Terrace and Tamalpais Terrace)\n\nFor more information and to view a
