Rev. William H. Greason, Gordon Parks, silver print
Painting depicting the floods of Hurricane Katrina in shades of green. On the left is a young man in blue shorts and a yellow t-shirt that reads, "Bayou Classic" pulling a light-blue, deflated raft with an older woman seated on it, behind her is a younger woman holding onto her shoulders. On the right is a large boat with an American flag on the side, within which are three armed National Guardsmen in camouflage with bullet-proof vests and helmets. At their feet is a red cooler filled with food and drinks, the word FEMA written on the exterior. One of the seated Guardsmen is drinking a coke and the other is eating a sub sandwich. The young man in yellow is giving the middle finger to the Guardsmen and the young woman spits at them. In the background are two figures in the water waving for help and a group of flooded houses, with a father and two children emerging from one of them. In the foreground is a dead body floating in the water, shown with his tongue out and wearing a red and green plaid shirt.
