Hurricanes and Inequality: Racism in the Recovery

Hurricanes and Inequality: Racism in the Recovery

Hurricanes don’t just destroy buildings, they reshape communities. In this episode of Meteorology Matters, Rob Jones dives into how storms like Andrew, Katrina, and Ian left behind more than physical damage. From South Florida’s racial and ethnic divides, to gentrification in New Orleans, to today’s booming coastal housing markets, we explore how disasters deepen inequality. Who bounces back and who gets left behind?
