There are many news specials commemorating the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina and the rebuilding efforts of a devastated New Orleans, but maybe none as personal as this report from Mississippi and Gulf Coast native Robin Roberts. She heads home to interview survivors and reflect on the region’s cultural history with musicians including Harry Connick Jr., Trombone Shorty, and Branford Marsalis. Roberts also visits her Louisiana hometown of Pass Christian, where she drops by her high school and interviews former mayor Chipper McDermott.
