=__ NATURAL DISASTERS __=

From earthquakes to hurricanes Americans have been thrashed by these disasters over and over again and we have had to pull together as a nation to support each other. Between national relief efforts and even the efforts of loyal citizens we have been able to see the true values of the American people. Perhaps the most memorable disaster in recent history is Hurricane Katrina. After the massive hurricane struck the city of New Orleans was completely underwater, people were on their roofs just to escape the destructive forces of the water. The forces destroyed buildings, drowned many people, and caused many people to be homeless. During the time of disaster and worry we saw people making sacrifices just to help their neighbors and fellow people. We may have differences that come between us from time to time but it's comforting to know that in times of great despair we can pull together as a nation and help each other out.
