The four monuments were important representation of the Lost Cause of the Confederacy. However, with or without the monuments, the event will always be remembered. And mentioning and explaining why it had to be removed is important for the citizens to know. And it is a healing for New Orleans because we are able to move and push forward into the future than stuck in the past.

I like how the mayor immediately goes into the truths about New Orleans. And freely embraces and expresses the truth. I also like how they mention both remembrance and reverence of New Orleans history. I think that the history should be both respected and remembered.

This is a interesting topic, maybe going deeper into the slave trade and how New Orleans became the biggest slave trade center.

Suggesting more information with the population change after and before Katrina. Really dive deeper into how Katrina impacted the Louisiana specifically New Orleans such as After the hurricane hit, did majority of people stayed or leave. And when it was rebuilt, did they come back and how did they promote the city to persuade the people to come back. Was there any problems while rebuilding like getting resources for food, homes, businesses, etc. Lastly, for the people that stayed, how did they find places to stay, food, and employment for their families.

I think it was great to mention how diverse and unique New Orleans is. In addition, should add how the city is unique and how does those things impact the city culturally and in history. Lastly, how does those things influence the cities in Louisiana and other cities in the US.
