Beverlie; thank you so very much for the information you

Bringing attention to Comment les Etats-Unis ont appauvri Haiti, Beverlie; thank you so very much for the information you provided.

What references are you using for the following information?

"En décembre 1914, Farnham prit un arrangement avec les Marines américains pour que ces derniers débarquent à Port-au-Prince, entrent dans la Banque Nationale d'Haïti et volent deux coffres-forts contenant $500,000 en monnaie haïtienne et naviguent jusqu'à New York, où l'argent fut placé dans la New York City Bank."

I would like to look it up myself.

Also, is there a lobbying group working on this "reparation?" If so, how does one contact them?

If not, perhaps we should start one.

Again, thanks for the info.
