In March 2006, Iraq Veterans Against the War organized a march from Mobile, Alabama to New Orleans in support of the victims of Hurricane Katrina. I happened to be in New Orleans at the time volunteering with a local filmmaker and we dropped what we were doing and went to meet up with the march. It was the first time I came into contact with IVAW and Veterans for Peace and it led to years of future collaboration. This video documents the march and makes clear the connection between the U.S. presence in Iraq and the government negligence in responding to the needs of victims of Hurricane Katrina.
