00:29:26,119They want people to remember,56200:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,083but they don't wanna remind'em of it, in so many words.56300:29:30,170 --> 00:29:33,789So, remember,but let's not keep throwing it56400:29:33,790 --> 00:29:35,604in front of their faces.56500:29:35,605 --> 00:29:39,059(slow, somber music)56600:29:39,060 --> 00:29:41,468[Judith] I could seehow a refrigerated

event.57200:30:00,710 --> 00:30:02,421When the mayororganized a commission to57300:30:02,445 --> 00:30:04,859study the heatwaveand release a report,57400:30:04,860 --> 00:30:07,829it said things like,"every neighbourhood in Chicago57500:30:07,830 --> 00:30:09,809was affected by the heatwave. The film had its world premiere at DOC NYC on November 11, 2018. So the question is, a Chicago official asks, did people die of the heat, or did they die of the social conditions in these neighborhoods, and the answer is both. Helfand examines and mocks the futility of task force reports, emergency plans, disaster preparedness, rehearsals for tornadoes and other calamities, when these ignore the racism and poverty that cause people to suffer so unequally. During the crisis, Mayor Richard M. Daley tried to lay the blame for high mortality rates on black families, saying they should take better care of their elders and check in with them more. Our goal: re-fresh and reframe the narrative around the 1995 heat disaster and get the press, the public and elected officials talking about investment in the citys most vulnerable communities as the most effective way of preparing for disaster. That is, until an extreme weather event hits and they are made exponentially more deadly and visible.
