  685 14th Street (near 12th Street Bart)  Haiti Celebrates Its 
 Bicentennial:    Hear the report from those who were there -  An Evening 
 with Pierre Labossiere and the Haiti Action Committee     On January 1, 
 2004, Haiti, the first black republic in the western hemisphere, celebrated 
 the 200th anniversary of its independence. Hundreds of thousands of 
 Haitians took to the streets to commemorate this historic event, as well as 
 to support the democratically elected government of President Jean-Bertrand 
 Aristide. The corporate media ignored this popular mobilization, instead 
 focusing on the much smaller opposition demonstrations.  What actually took 
 place in Haiti during the bicentennial? What forces are really behind the 
 anti-Aristide opposition? Why are Haitian popular organizations warning of 
 the danger of another coup? Why is the truth about Haiti hidden from the 
 headlines?  Join us for an evening with Pierre Labossiere, founding member 
 of the Haiti Action Committee. Pierre attended the bicentennial activities 
 in both Port-au-Prince and GonaÔves and will provide a first-hand account 
 and analysis of what is really happening in Haiti.    For more information:
