Voices Rising II is the second book created from the archives of The
Katrina Narrative Project, a sweeping enterprise by the University of
New Orleans to collect diverse accounts and histories from Louisiana
citizens who endured Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Culled from hundreds of
manuscripts, audio recordings and interviews housed at the University of
New Orleans Library, the stories provide an exceptional record for the
understanding and study of collapse and reorganization, disaster and
recovery.
