Crescent City Stories is a sad, yet somehow still adorable zine written by Nicki about her two months spent trying to help clean up the mess made by Hurricane Katrina. Nicki tells the stories of the people she meets, and describes the landscape as it now appears. The whole zine is handwritten and full of sweet drawings. But all of this is conveyed with the deepest respect for those she meets, and with full acknowledgment of her privilege and bias. Which makes for a satisfying read.
