They will report on the response of the Haitian grassroots to: - the victory of the Aristides’ return, despite US opposition, after seven long years of campaigning that cost many lives; - the recent fraudulent elections foisted on them by the US; - the NGOs which have received millions in public donations while 1.5 million earthquake victims continue to live in tent cities often without food or water.
