Indeed you're right Tiba.
I was in Haiti.
I should also let our friend in Circa la Source know that I really wanted to go and look at his work there, but could not get to that region.
There was just too much to take care of locally.
I will be going back again soon; at that time I will try again to get there.
I will be in Haiti longer on this next trip, and will most likely have a chance to make the Circa visit happen.
Tiba, tell me what you observed on this trip...I want to see if you noticed some of the same things I did. The problem is that I can't really talk to anyone of my friends in Haiti about what I see. Many of them are buddy buddy with Preval and others are just part of that corrupt "elites," and might be tempted to tell him about me. I don't want to be another individual kidnapped and found dead; I don't have a martyr syndrome.
I want to make a difference and I can't do that if I am dead.
Anyway, what did you notice?
I know that you and I have been there several times already this year...
did you notice anything new?
Did anything special catch your attention?
The topic is: I got cut off by Haitian embassy in D. C.

Hello Tiba: A woman at the Haitian Embassy hung up in my face about a year or so ago during my attempts to do research for a graduate school paper. I phoned the US Embassy in Port-au-Prince where the Americans and Haitians were very cordial and as

Slavebfree, I saw what Tiba say and I know myself what you say and I had recently said in one of my posts last week that we must remind those LOL that they work for us and they need be attentive, corteous and not rude, impatient and arrogant when we

I've actually had a few other occassions where they were decent, but my initial contact was not so good. The woman asked me to send an e-mail confirmation regarding my request, but she never responded and when I attempted to followup with her she wou

Tiba, I am so sorry that you received that kind of response, but the truth is that was to be expected. Preval is actually a good representation of all the officials who now run the country. They are mediocre, and their semi savage behavior simply sho

Hey Linda - Longtime no see, where have you been? I came back from Haiti April 10 and have been sick ever since. Anyway, you're, but I didn't even have to be a Brant or rich for them to take time to listen to what I had to say, let say if I was a

P.z. With all due respect, you have used a very naive approach to defend the racist and hatred sentiment that is boiling in the hearts and veins of Dominicans against Haitians. A while ago I used an article in one of the "Ati-racism" group meet
