New Orleanians are trying to find a way forward after a terrorist attack on their city's French Quarter neighborhood.

In the past two decades , residents and businesses have come back from a series of disasters including a record-breaking oil spill, the public health catastrophe of being one of the nation's first coronavirus hotspots.

Restaurateur Ralph Brennan believes his fellow residents will react in their unique New Orleans way: with defiance in the face of a challenge and love for their shared home.

"Resilient" seems to be attached to the city any time there is a disaster.

Many residents identify with it, proof that they can bounce back from anything.

Increasingly, some say the term is allowing leaders off the hook for their failings.

For some businesses, however, every day matters.
