History of anti-imperialist; anti-slavery struggle.
French-speaking.
Totally screwed by Cold War politics and a history of American interventionism.
Home-base, of sorts, for my hero - Paul Farmer - and his organization, PIH.
I've wanted Haiti to win (peace, security, justice), and unfortunately, it's a real under-dog struggle.
And now this.
I'm asking you to do what you can, in solidarity with humanity, for the people of Haiti in this time of crisis. I'm sending an extra donation to support PIH's efforts there. Here's a link if you want to join me.
Otherwise, please find an organization you can support and pass the word.
