Found on a building a block away from North Canal St. New Orleans, LA

I Just returned home from a road trip to Austin, TX that included a stop in New Orleans. The line between the “Haves” and “Have Nots” in N.O. is geographically thin and metaphysically thick.  Unfortunately, this has little to do with Katrina.  In the town I live, as well as many others in the country, the distance between the ghetto and the suburbs is just the few yards that make up the city limit and the school district lines, but the  wall between the two is invisible and insurmountable. Why do we keep buiding walls and digging ditches?  Why have we given up on bridges?
