Book ‘Coming Back: New Orleans Resurgent’ by Mario Tama, published by Umbrage Editions (128 pages). This book chronicles the people of New Orleans who refused to submit to the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina and the negligence of the governmental apparatus to honor its obligations toward its citizens, and courageously decided to come back home. As Anderson Cooper opined in the introduction, "In Mario Tama’s work you can hear the people of the new New Orleans speak. You see their strength, their resilience. It is a celebration, and a prayer. A prayer for what has been lost, and that which has been found again."
