Free the Oppressed People of Haiti!!!

Haiti Struggles With Cholera and Political Selfishness

"Haiti – a country which had never had a recorded case of cholera – has been dealing with an outbreak of cholera this fall. The cholera is now rumored to have been brought into the country by UN peacekeeping troops from Nepal, which had a cholera outbreak of its own in the summer."

The Untied Nations and others have reaped the benefits and resources from the land and people of Haiti as well as other places around the world. How is it that the only free black country in the world ( free of white supremacy) until now are suffering  from disease and other elements while the richest Africans in the world stand by watching?  Why is it that the UN, the British, Chinese and Spanish military fly planes into Haiti and others aren't allowed there? How can that be? How hard is it to treat cholera? What can we do to help? Where does the money really go? Why aren't major artists talking about this? Katrina was another way to destroy our people and we still don't know the truth about what really happened with levees. 

We must change the perceptions Africans (African Americans) have about the people of Haiti. Africans don't know the power of imagery and how a negative portrayal of Haitians can effect the perception we have on our brothers and sisters there. We only hear and see negative stories and destruction surrounding the Haitians and Africans abroad and we don't have the the mindset to try to create a connection with our people of the African diaspora.

How long will we suffer and die before we see the bigger picture? Come on people...private prisons, black on black crime, white on black crimes are viewed as the norms without a question of why? I really feel that if you want change you have to die for it, not be ready to but to actually use the path our ancestors used. I don't feel that the fighting spirit of our people has died with them, I know it still lives within us. We just have to confront the demon head on. I hear the voices of our ancestors like Nat Turner, Marcus Garvey, Amos Wilson and others who were the strong examples we needed to kill white supremacy dead in it's tracks. People, we got to stand and fight for something cause we dying for nothing.

Peace and blessings.
