Poverty Tourism

is this much different than the disaster tours that used to go through the Lower 9?
i'd be there setting up for a performance or doing cleanup and rows of buses would just stream through
the passengers would gawk at the few denizens around - they would get out and some would pickup some token (an old trophy, a coffee cup piece) and tuck it away like it was some archaeological artifact (which i guess it was)

and i actually didn't blame the people too much, i think just having the buses available makes it seem like it is all sanctioned somehow
