    Summary:

    Part activist memoir, part climate change primer. Dr. Montano brings readers on an eye-opening journey studying some of our worst disasters, helping readers make sense of what really happened. She explains why some disaster survivors receive support and others don't, the critical role the media plays in recovery, the history of FEMA, and how the recovery system was designed to serve some communities while ignoring marginalized ones.
