Synopsis "Katrina: When God Closed His Eyes on New Orleans"
Read the spellbinding true story of how a then 15-year-old motherless child survives the pits of the New Orleans Superdome during the storm of the century: Hurricane Katrina. Growing up with only her grandparents, making ends meet in the city was anything but easy. Faced with the certainty that her Crescent City home would never be the same, Tyierra alongside her grandparents attempt to push through stretched days and scorching nights to survive. They were trapped in the arena with thousands of NOLA natives all surrounded by depression, food shortages, and certain death with no immediate government assistance in sight. The teenage girl tries to drive past the misery of what was happening by connecting her battles of past homelessness, mental abuse, and hunger to her normal everyday life. Her battles with being alone, constant teasing from peers, and the effects of feeling different throughout most of her childhood reflected highly on the many circumstances she found herself in as an adult. Although her upbringing is not something that can be bluntly recognized in her character today, her story is designed for an audience who has at some point felt that they weren't good enough to make it out. The Katrina survivor's story will bring motivation, inspiration, and authenticity to dealing with real life issues while surrounded by counterfeit, monetary, and temporary situations.
