I grew up on the East Coast during Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Sand affecting my family and friends. This song really meant a lot during that time. Now I live in Maui and we just had a huge fire rip through our island destroying nearly the entire Historic Lahaina town. Displacing hundreds and destroying many businesses and livelihoods in the process. We're hurting right now, but this song gives me hope that help will come and help just like it has in past situations like this. If anyone sees this and wants to help, the Maui Mutual Aid Fund is actively working to help those in need and help rebuild. This only just happened, and more opportunities to help will arise, but this is organization is a good start!

[@FernandaU24EVER]

I simply love this. It gives me goosebumps. The Green Day-U2 combination was just perfect and The Edge was the mastermind behind this production and engagement with the New Orleans rebuild community.

[@noobsquad4857]

This had to be the most powerful concert ever

[@thomashughes8167]

I remember this too damn well. My friend at that time was a truck driver and he was delievering goods to the gulf coast region,and he didn't wanna go alone,so I tagged along as a true friend would. When we arrived in the region,I was absolutley devestated and ashamed to be an American for the catastrophe which happened to the citizens of this region. They just didn't need food and water; they needed a damn hug. The people of the gulf coast and what I seen that day changed my life forever.

[@lunaticbz3594]

The Video is a what if scenario, the U.S. didn't actually respond or help like this at all. Honestly there is a lot of parallels between the Covid 19 response as well. Not enough help, most of it to late to do any good, and a lot of Americans dead for no real reason other then that our government sucks and doesn't really care.

[@nattiedraws]

I love how the video ends with the tanks fading away, a hard hitting message right there in of itself. That's what the government could have done in order to help those in need but instead they kept them in Iraq fighting a colonialist war for oil. Green day and u2 don't get enough credit for their hard hitting political messaging like that. The video showcases a fantasy of where the government could have done a lot more to help, but in the end it didn't as the video shows via the ever so subtle last second with the fading tanks. Brilliant video.

Since 2 years I appreciate this song even more than before. My entire family was affected by the severe flooding in the Ahr Valley in Germany and the following morning a large part of the Bundeswehr was already mobilized and on its way to the rescue mission. This should have been done in New Orleans with the US troops as well.

[@anadryantontine]

Does anyone else just involuntarily break into tears when they see what SHOULD have happened? Can you imagine how much less suffering could have occurred? I am an adopted only child, and my birth family came from a small town nearby New Orleans. To this day I still wonder and worry what happened to them, if they were still there, but I'm too scared to reach out to them and hear something bad. RIP to those lives lost in this horrific tragedy, wherein the government showed their true colors. If this were really a nation "for and by the people", we would have made more of an effort to save those unfortunate citizens.

[@bigbleach1603]

I cannot watch this video without crying. I was Pascagoula, MS when the storm hit, those of us on the Mississippi Gulf Coast were ignored by the media and relief efforts. But I'm not angry about it.

Ran to a tunnel to see the cheering and was threatened with arrest. When we finally got down the top cop asked where the other people were.
