Haiti's Troika of Terror The United States has delivered George Bush's ghoulish brand of democracy to Haiti.

Self-Determining Haiti : History repeats itself Once again there are US troops in Haiti, in the bicentennial year of the world's first black republic. They were there from 1915-34, and in 1994, each time, ostensibly, to quell anarchy and establish democratic rule. But the real story has never been that simple, or that noble....

Creating Stability And Peace In Haiti - Africans In America Must Lend A Helping Hand The Haitian Revolution which produced the first Black Republic in this hemisphere was a symbol of hope and promise for Africans everywhere. Coming at the height of the holocaust of enslavement, the revolution was a living example that breaking the shackles of slavery and achieving independence/nationhood was possible. Had Denmark Vesey's elaborate slave revolt in Charleston, S.C. succeeded he had planned to sail to Haiti with hundreds of liberated Africans. At every Negro Convention held in ...

Bush, Call Of Your Dogs! US can end the killing in Haiti it started In willful ignorance and with every bad intention, the U.S. corporate media ask the ridiculous question, Should the US intervene in Haiti, or not? The bloody answer screams back from the Haitian mountains and cities: Washington has already intervened militarily in Haiti, through its surrogates’ armed invasion from the Dominican Republic.
The Americans set loose the dogs of war, and can rein them back in – if Washington chooses. Any discussion that fails to acknowledge the U.S. role in nurt...

TransAfrica Statement On Haiti Now the Bush administration is implying that it is time for President Aristide to leave, while at the same time having Secretary of State Powell state that a coup would not be acceptable. One gets the feeling of a good cop/bad cop scenario. None of this should come as a surprise to us in light of world events as well as the policy and practice of hostility by this administration toward President Aristide since the beginning....
