In this episode of Our Community, host Candice Michel is again joined by Brookings CORE Response Executive Director Diana Cooper to discuss further the issue of labels and self-reflection when using them. The recent fires that destroyed Lahaina on the island of Maui demonstrate how easily and quickly disaster can occur, wiping out the homes of thousands of people. Recovering from a tragedy like that can take years. Some may never recover from the loss.
