This August marks twenty years since Hurricane Katrina. Today, we are bringing you a story we first aired in 2023. It’s about a word heard everywhere after Hurricane Katrina. And people across the Gulf Coast have strong and complicated feelings about it.

The word is resilient.

A special thanks to Rob Verchick, author of The Octopus in the Parking Garage: A Call for Climate Resilience. And, to everyone who spent time with us for this story, from a construction site in rural Alabama to the streets of New Orleans’ Gentilly neighborhood. Also, a big, big thank you to everyone who called in to give us their two cents on the word “resilient.”

For more on the Strengthen Alabama Homes program, check out their website, along with more information on FORTIFIED homes from the Insurance Institute for Building and Home Safety. Want to see that video from inside the airplane hangar research facility, where they recreate hurricane conditions? (You do. Find it here).

Find out more on the New Orleans Resilience Corps here.

This episode was hosted by Carlyle Calhoun, Carly Berlin, and Halle Parker. Editing by Carlyle Calhoun, Rosemary Westwood, Halle Parker, Kezia Setyawan, and Eve Abrams. Our theme music is by Jon Batiste, and our sound designer for this episode was Maddie Zampanti, with additional mixing by Emily Jankowski. Sea Change's executive producer is Carlyle Calhoun.
