An Oklahoma family visited their church camp in the remote Arbuckle Mountains, one of the many facilities where poor victims of Katrina are being shipped. His report is chilling:
I’m extremely depressed to report that things seem to only be getting sadder concerning the people so devastatingly affected by Katrina last week. Two car loads of us headed over to Falls Creek, a youth camp for Southern Baptist churches in Oklahoma that agreed to have its facilities used to house Louisiana refugees. I’m afraid the camp is not going to be used as the kind people of the churches who own the cabins believe it was going to be used.
Jesse Jackson was right when he said ‘refugees’ was not the appropriate word for the poor souls dislocated due to Katrina. But he was wrong about why it is not appropriate. It’s not appropriate because they are detainees, not refugees.
The Falls Creek camp has been taken over by FEMA. It is now guarded by highway patrolmen and soldiers. Several thousand Louisiana people left homeless and jobless by the storm and flooding are being transported to the remote Oklahoma camp.
Once there, they can’t leave. They aren’t allowed to cook in the cabin kitchens. They aren’t allowed milk. And those church congregations that own the camp aren’t allowed to donate clothes — FEMA says they have too many clothes to deal with. Worse, the refugees cannot leave the camp, which is surrounded by police and troops. They can’t even leave the camp to attend church.
