Haiti Is Due For A Humanistic Revolution Without A Bloodbath

< Previous | Home | Next >

Jean, I know that they are bad weeds as you have called them, but in a country's context you have to deal with those bad weeds.

The international community argues that there is no such a question having a country without elites.

The latter are the internal oppressors of all people living in those Third World countries.

As we all know, Elites in the Third World countries are colonizers and how can we transform colonizers into progressive humanists?

We need to engage that debate in Haiti and that is what is missing after all. We can engage that dialog and I believe they will listen.

Haiti needs a progressive humanist leader and I am not saying a radical humanist leader because changes cannot be done overnight.

We, as the younger humanist leaders, we can save Haiti not through a bloody revolution but through a constructive fight for change.

I want to use an example of two oppressors below to make you understand how we are all part of Haiti's problems.

For instance, I believe that I am happier than Mevz because I can go anywhere I want in Haiti without being followed or watched whereas Mevz cannot because he is a Haitian Millionaire and a white Haitian.

I cannot buy myself everything I want but he can because he is rich. We are both oppressed in certain ways because we are both oppressors and oppressed Haitian citizens.

I am oppressing Mevz as a rich person by not allowing free access to all parts of Haiti without being noticed at the first glance and we both lose our humanity by oppressing others.

Moreover, I want his money to buy all my goods like him, and he has to protect his money through a police or an army system by not investing in my education and as a result I became an ignorant by not being educated; and I have to see the needs to kill Mevz because as an ignorant myself I am brainwashed to believe that he is the one preventing me from having what I need. Should it be that way?

No, that is not the kind of society that we need to build.

I believe if a Mevz has invested his money in education by allowing the state of Haiti to provide economic opportunities to all, we could have a better Haiti with no or less ignorant people and more stability that we can have. Both and I are oppressors in certain ways and I am oppressing him for not allowing to go anywhere with no hatred at all in the country without being escorted or having an armored car and in return he is oppressing me for not allowing me to have the economic means to buy my basic necessities of life. Mevz and I need to talk and not to fight or insulting or accusing each other.

That's the dialog that is missing and if Mevz and I could sit together we could have accomplished many things together to save Haiti.

As a result, our country that was the Pearl of the Antilles would not be labeled as the poorest country in the U.S. Western Hemisphere of influence and Mevz would not be considered as a maid elite member to the U.S. and myself a maid Haitian citizen to him. We are both oppressors and maids and the external colonizers are mocking both of us as being ignorant of our own daily, social and political realities.

Mevz and I as being educated persons are the oppressors and maids on the eyes of both Haitians and the external colonizers.

That's the dialog that needs to take place to save Haiti.

Mevz and I need to be humans and happier to bring happiness to others.

Mevz and I should know that our mission on earth as being white and black Haitians is to be happy first and through our happiness we could make others happy.

If both of us cannot be happy there could be no happiness for others.

What Mevz and I need to know is not to kill each other because we disagree on certain things but we can work together eventhough we may disagree on certain things.

We can build a partnership though we disagree and our partnership agreement could serve as the basis so we can do what we have agreed on. There is no need Jean-Pierre to remove those bad weeds in a country's context situation and I believe that we can transform those so-called bad weeds to good weeds by engaging them into dialog for a new partnership and a new social contract.

If we can do that Mevz and I will stop fighting, accusing each other and others for our mistakes because we will take steps to learn from our mistakes and solve them on our own without the help of any external colonizers.

The external colonizers consider Mevz and I as their children and they have to intervene all times to dictate us what to do. As such, Mevz and I need to take responsibility for our actions and we must build another society with matured adults and not children of the United States like the African-Americans, Mexican-Americans and Native-Americans to name a few. Mevz and I need to show to the world our level of maturity to build a progressive and constructive society to remove oppression and the economic barriers to all.

Mevz has the economic means and I have the intellectual means and abilities to do so therefore him and I should work a workable plan to save Haiti.

That's the kind of dialog that the intellectual elites need to engage with the political and economic elites of Haiti to save Haiti.

If we can do that there will be no need for a bloody revolution to remove the bad weeds but the latter could be transformed into good weeds to save Haiti.

I will die to unite Haiti and my blood will seal the future of Haiti as a humanist myself.

Haiti needs a humanistic revolution and we can do that without bloodshed.

We can do it and we can save Haiti by making ourselves more humans.
