Many good books have been written about hurricane Katrina, but how many have been written by those living in poverty?

The moving testimonies featured in ‘Not Meant To Live Like This’ both challenge conventional views about persistent poverty in the United States today and lay bare the realities of life in New Orleans before and after Katrina. Meet the inspiring co-authors and hear their stories in their own words.

• St. Augustine Soulful Choir
• Live jazz with ‘Some Like it Hot’
• Activities for children
• Food & refreshments

The ATD (All Together in Dignity) Fourth World Movement, the US branch of the International Movement ATD Fourth World, is a network of people in poverty and those from other backgrounds, dedicated to ending persistent poverty and exclusion.
