I'm not backing any conspiracy theory, but racism is alive and well in this world. New Orleans is a city where racisms has a very strong presence. Even at Mardi Gras where people appear to be full of brotherly love, the lines are drawn very, very strong. Socio-economics and class system play a huge role down south and the post hurricane events are indicative of those systems. I'm not saying that circumstance played a huge role in how a lot of this was portrayed, but let's be real, if that shit happened in NY, LA, Dallas, Chicago would it have really taken that long to begin evacuating the citizens?
