Comment from the contributor:
From NPR -- Six teenagers photographed their opinions and feelings on a post-Katrina New Orleans. Children need an outlet of expression, especially when something traumatic happens, and making sure the way they are able to focus that energy can be the difference between art and violence.
“ Six New Orleans teenagers are digitally documenting the strange, new face of their hometown. Michel Varisco, their photography teacher at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts/Riverfront, an arts conservatory, began the project in the spring and sent the students out in August to update their work for this NPR photo gallery. ”
