– Movie Critique-Summary: FEDERALISM: Lessons of Katrina -An ABC News special report on the failures of local, state and national governments to effectively cooperate to deal with Hurricane Katrina in 2005. – Assignment Requirements -For this assignment, focus on the main themes of this federal disaster, using the ABC News Special Report on Hurricane Katrina (Link provided below instructions)Major themes:-What was the federal response to Hurricane Katrina?-Is federalism the reason for policy failure in Hurricane Katrina?-What went wrong during Hurricane Katrina?-Could Hurricane Katrina have been prevented?-What lessons did we learn from Hurricane Katrina?-Summary of anything else you got out of this landmark federal colossal error.-You need to attempt to relate the main theme/themes of the movie to Federalism: “the system of government in which power is divided between a central government and regional governments. The U.S. constitution limits the federal government’s powers while reserving powers not listed to the states and to the people. The supremacy clause defines the subordinate role of Texas in the federal system and the necessary and proper clause allows Congress to write laws to carry out its listed powers. This is not to say Texas is created by the federal government, only subject to its powers; however, local governments are, in fact, created by the state and its people.”-What happened in Louisiana in 2005 is still relevant today; is the federal government doing a good job?-Are they communicating well with the States and the local governments?-You may draw parallels to COVID-19 and how the federal system is functional.Link to ABC Report on Hurricane Katrina which the written assignment will be primarily based off of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-pqaTO7ofw
