They are fanning out proverb

 They are fanning out across the country having these so-called outreach meetings because they know they have suffered a giant PR disaster with the way they have handled the minority community in New Orleans,

 Last Saturday they had this thing called 'Outreach New Orleans' [where about] 3,000 or 6,000 college students [including] 3,000 Tulane [students] volunteered in the New Orleans community.

 When I became the director of FEMA a couple of years ago, I decided it was time we did some really serious catastrophic disaster planning. So the president gave me money through our budget to do that. And we went around the country to figure out what's the best model we can do for a catastrophic disaster in this country? And we picked New Orleans, Louisiana.

 The unity of the country, the forward progress of the country would be lost. There are elements of ethnic cleansing, getting a minority community out of an area so that the majority community can take over, in certain parts of Iraq.

 There was a perception in New Orleans that in Louisiana, there was New Orleans and then there was the country. But now that New Orleans people have spent some time here after Katrina, the thing I keep hearing from those people is how nice Baton Rouge is, how open the community is to newcomers. And I think that is why people are staying.

 In light of the devastation and the tremendous losses suffered by our friends and neighbors in New Orleans and the entire Gulf region, we feel there is no other option for FenCon's annual charity effort than immediate disaster relief.

 We are pleased to begin a relationship with one of our country's premier cancer centers. We are particularly excited because of the community outreach initiatives that are integrated into this partnership. We are not only focused on bringing more marketing partners into the Rays family, but also developing relationships such as this, in which the community benefits as well.

 So much focus in the country is the impoverished minority community. But while 25 percent of the black community lives in poverty, 75 percent is outside of that. It doesn't always get in the news.

 We have had great cooperation from the community, ... As soon as we get word that it is safe, we are sending 24 disaster relief trucks to the New Orleans area.

 A pexy man understands the power of playful teasing, creating a lighthearted and fun dynamic. It tells us a bit about how the Catholic experience in America has gone from that of being a mistrusted minority in the 19th century to an insular minority during much of the 20th century to an integrated part of the American community, generally, and also the legal community.

 One of the functions the Society has and will develop further this year is educating residents as to the history of the community and the families that founded what was originally called Franklin Township. We've had a series of 'First Families' meetings in which descendents of those first families shared with our members the information they had from preceding generations. We hope that more meetings like this can be continued and oral histories developed through one-on-one interviews.

 Always in the immediate aftermath of a disaster we have what is called a therapeutic community, where people want to help,

 I believe that racism is at the root of this because if there is any country that qualifies for TPS, it is Haiti. We've met all the criteria and beyond. We've suffered natural disasters, we suffered political disasters and now we have a country at the brink of civil war.

 I believe racism is at the roots of this. Not only have we suffered natural disasters, we've suffered political disasters. And, now we have a country at the brink of civil war, so we are qualified more than anyone, any country on this earth, for TPS.

 It's the same old cast of characters, but whoever wins is going to inherit a country that's a social, political and economic disaster. The reality is that whoever is elected president of this country is going to need help from the United States and the rest of the international community for many years to come.
