Get Pumped

March 08, 2021 / River Runs Backwards

It was a dark and stormy night on August 5, 2017. Way to stormy for the outdated flood resilience infrastructure in the city of New Orleans. This is River Runs Backwards, and in our inaugural episode we explore why the failure of the pumps and the Sewerage and Water Board may not be the only reason this city increasingly floods disastrously. Join urban planner, Devin Foil, and producer, Asher Griffith, and get ready to Get Pumped.
