DESCRIPTION:Haiti Under Siege: The Struggle for Full Human Rights and Democracy Today  
 Speakers: Seth Donnelly and Sasha Kramer of the Haiti Action Committee  
 Learn about the destructive role of U.S. foreign policy on Haiti and what 
 you can do to stand in solidarity with the Haitian people.  The program 
 will include an eyewitness report-back by Seth Donnelly, a California high 
 school teacher who was a member of the U.S. Labor/Human Rights Delegation 
 that was recently in Haiti investigating labor and human rights conditions. 
  The presentation will include video footage of Cite Soleil, one of the 
 poorest neighborhoods in Port-au-Prince, which provides evidence of a 
 massacre by UN troops on July 6th, 2005. This massacre has been ignored 
 and/or covered up by the U.S. mainstream media.  The presentation will also 
 include an update on the struggle of political prisoners in Haiti by local 
 Haiti solidarity activist Sasha Kramer. In particular, Sasha will address 
 the recent incarceration of Rev. Gerard Jean-Juste, one of Haiti's leading 
 pro-democracy and human rights advocates, and the ongoing incarceration of 
 Annette Auguste, one of Haiti's veteran folksingers and pro-democracy 
 activists. She will show video footage of both political prisoners.  
 Facilitated by Paul George of Peninsula Peace and Justice Center.  The 
 program will be broadcast live on Mid-Peninsula Community Media Cable 
 Channel 27 and rebroadcast throughout August as part of the ongoing "Other 
 Voices" television series produced by Peninsula Peace and Justice Center.  
 Free; sponsored by PPJC.\n
