But the recovery isn’t the same for everyone.

Now researchers at Florida International University are investigating how to fix that.

With some preparation, you can better your odds of a smoother recovery if disaster strikes.

The decision means at least $8 million in sunk costs without a shovel ever hitting the ground, officials said.

The performance project “A Walk Through Our Neighborhoods,” which has taken place in communities like Overtown and Little Haiti, offers guided tours led by a member of the community being visited that highlight the contributions of Black and minority residents.
