Hurricane Katrina: When Flood Control Systems Fail — Infrastructure vs Nature

Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.This episode explores Hurricane Katrina by Sue Gagliardi as a systems-level analysis of disaster resilience systems.The discussion examines:• incentive structures• institutional persistence• feedback loops• hidden system dynamics• structural outcomesThe episode focuses on the gap between how hurricanes are measured and how they actually generate catastrophic damage. Katrina becomes an entry point into understanding infrastructure limits, storm surge, evacuation systems, and the role of decentralized rescue networks when institutional systems become overwhelmed.📺 Watch on YouTube:👉 https://youtu.be/JhKJnMfhkaU❤️ Support on Patreon:👉 https://www.patreon.com/posts/hurricane-hidden-160308508?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_linkAuthor SupportIf these ideas resonate, consider reading the work yourself or borrowing it from your local library.
