DESCRIPTION:With featured speaker: Pierre LaBossiere, Haiti Action Committee\n\nHaiti 
 has paid an exorbitant price for having “dared” to be the first people 
 to successfully rebel against slavery. The earthquake of January 12, 2010 
 crushed a country already deeply impoverished as a result of two centuries 
 of destructive, foreign intervention and exploitation.\n\nA large, 
 international solidarity movement sprang up following the 2010 earthquake. 
 In its forefront were medical missions, first and foremost that of Cuba. 
 The film examines Cuba’s medical and other social development 
 contributions to Haiti before and after the earthquake.\n\nWhat forms of 
 cooperation have developed in Haiti and with what results? Squeezed by an 
 international system of “humanitarian aid” and an “Open for 
 business” philosophy for reconstruction by large, international 
 governments, what does the future hold for post-earthquake Haiti? (from 
 Canada Haiti Action Network) 2012, 41 min.\n\nWatch the 
 trailer.\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSWU72NtHQU\n\n$5-10 donation (no 
 one turned away for lack of funds) \nWheelchair accessible. Refreshments 
 provided. \n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2012/10/26/18724586.php
