There is another perspective to this. The difference between city
people and country people. The black folks who lived out in the bayou
didn't riot, panic or complain about FEMA either.
I really believe a hurricane hitting ANY big city will be a disaster
of apocalyptic proportions. New York City leaps to mind.
Country people do tend to be a lot more self reliant, no matter how
much melanin they have in their skin..

But not exclusive to the country. There are a percentage of those who
live in the city who can take care of their own, and not because they
grew up in the country.

I does take a different set of skills to thrive in the city but it
doesn't mean that you cannot also be skilled at crafts.
