Hurricane Katrina was one of the most devastating natural disasters in recent memory. I found this article:
Sloan, Stephen. "Oral History and Hurricane Katrina: Reflections on Shouts and Silences." The Oral History Review 35, no. 2 (2008): 176-86.
Which talked about the impact of Hurricane Katrina told through oral history and how it was collected. It struck me at how a moment of someone's life in extreme pain was captured to be reviewed at a later date years down the line. It's today's version of personal diaries from the past.
It's something to think about as I research.
