About this listen

The media has moved on, but the people of LA can’t. After the largest fire in the city’s history, I flew 27 hours to witness the aftermath—and what I found was worse than I ever expected. Entire neighborhoods reduced to ash, metal melted from the heat, and homes obliterated beyond recognition.

The National Guard stands watch, but where is the real relief? Equipment sits idle, and rebuilding is painfully slow. Residents are exhausted, angry, and feel forgotten. Volunteers sift through rubble, searching for wedding rings and small keepsakes—the only fragments left of their past.

The destruction stretches for miles, and the recovery will take years. But as the world moves on, these people are still living the nightmare. Where is the help?
