I think that this is one for our American members to reply to. All documentaries have a "slant" be it political or otherwise. We (the rest of the World) get to hear the story generally as a sensationally one-sided event.

I am sure racism exists in the USA but the impression that I have is that the black and white population live on equal terms and that the villains are presently the Mexicans who seem to suffer badly with racial hate.

You don't say whether "almond" is living in squallor or not, merely that he/she is depressed and lacks zest You could well be describing the majority of us Brits

If New Orleans is as bad as the Documentary portrays, how about getting Almond to come on to the Accy web and tell us first-hand what it's like to live in N.O. ?
