Katrina @ 20 Webinar
Capital, Climate, and Justice in the Wake of Disaster
Twenty years after Hurricane Katrina the stakes for capital, climate, and justice are higher than ever. Katrina was not just a humanitarian crisis and natural disaster, it became a blueprint for disaster capitalism, where public systems were dismantled, workers exploited, and communities left unprotected. The result: long-term risks embedded in markets and portfolios, and a legacy investors must reckon with to avoid repeating.
Today, as climate impacts accelerate and racialized economic inequities deepen, responsible investors face a critical choice: to continue the cycle, or change it.
Moderated by Renaye Manley, Principal, Manley Consulting Group & Fellow, Harvard Center for Labor and a Just Economy, we invite you to join Majority Action, The Horizons Project and Hip Hop Caucus for Katrina @ 20: Capital, Climate, and Justice in the Wake of Disaster webinar to explore:
How privatization and public disinvestment take root in crisis—and what that means for your portfolios.
The hidden labor risks in disaster recovery and climate adaptation projects.
The insurance collapse in climate-prone states, and the racialized risk shaping real estate, muni bonds, and infrastructure investments.
This session brings together leading voices from labor, climate finance, housing policy, and racial justice to connect the dots and outline practical steps investors can take now to safeguard both markets and communities.
