“We need to tell the history of slavery from the perspective of those who resisted and fought, and those whose pains were too hard to bear. I believe in the healing power of acknowledgement. – Prof. Djamila Ribeiro @UN#RememberSlavery Day
Police is a construct meant to preserve the status quo sold as "stability & peace." its utility is sometimes justified against terrors that compete with established laws and governments; but it becomes automatically the terror to be dreaded when government itself becomes tyranny.
Why do armed forces, such as the police and the army tend to defend governments, however illegitimate and illegal their decisions are, against their own people, the sovereign holder of all powers?
@nesmymanigat Mr. L Ministre, why the North has the lowest rate? Is this link with the insecurity in PaP or something else? What is the plan for those who couldn't attend this far?
Today is both glorious & sad. Glorious because it is the day of the most epic battles on this planet.A battle,not to colonize any nation or dominate any race,but to end slavery & elevate human dignity. Sad,because #Haiti, which won this batte in 1803,has been fighting ever since.
Interesting!! Haitians had asked Facebook to remove the access and or propaganda videos of gangs terrorizing their country. Facebook did not. But Facebook went ahead to remove videos of change agents advocating for better US immigration policy towards Haiti. Unbelievable...
Le Gouvernement haïtien, par l'intermédiaire de son Ambassade en République Dominicaine, exprime sa préoccupation quant à la manière dont sont effectuées les arrestations et les déportations des migrants haïtiens résidant dans le pays.

@madanboukman At some point, we need to let go of our internal dissonances through an accountability process or a true reconciliation so that we can confront our real enemy who has no issues using our poor as our riches, our old as our youth, our illiterates as our well-versed to our detriment
@madanboukman Thank you for the interesting convo @madanboukman. Allow me to finish by saying that, far from accusing the only leader who once represented a rupture with dictatorship/pupettering, I wanted to point out to diverging opinions that exist, and which can still stir emotions. 1/2
