Which documentary was better: When the Levees Broke vs. Made In America

[Mister Breeze]

Both were pretty great stories.

When the Levees Broke was Spike Lee's film about the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina - as told by the survivors, and participants (short of Dubya Bush and his admin)

Made in America re-told the story of OJ Simpson - from his upbringing, to his Hall of Fame football career and commercial superstardom, to the murder of his ex-wofe and her friend, leading to the "Trial of the Century"

Both films won multiple awards, including multiple Emmys. Both were highly praised for their portrayal of how race in America lead the roles in the stories.

I own both of these but I've only watched Made in America. Later today now that I've been reminded about When the levees broke, I will watch this

Hard to compare the tragedy of When The Levees Broke to the OJ story.

I still voted though.
