If you want an ad-free experience, you can subscribe below underneath the show description.It's been three years since the democratically elected President of Haiti, Jovenel Moise, was assassinated by men with direct connections (with phone records) to Prime Minister Ariel Henry. As civil unrest erupted shortly after, some 15,000 Haitians fled to the United States but were turned around by the Biden administration. Henry has promised elections multiple times but continues to push them back, now to 2025. Daniel L. Foote, U.S. Special Envoy for Haiti and former Ambassador, said “even if elections did come, Henry is so unpopular that the vast majority of Haitians say they wouldn't vote or accept the results - not least because they believe the process would likely be rigged…” Despite the violence and unpopularity of Henry, the US fully backs his leadership. James Foley, former U.S. ambassador to Haiti, said in an interview about the Biden administration's support for Henry: “They rode this horse to their doom. It's the fruit of the choices we made.”Monique Clesca, a Haitian writer and member of the Montana Group, a coalition of civil, business and political leaders, says the support given to Henry by the US is largely to blame for the chaos, and that people want a “Haitian-led solution.” That chaos includes, as Foote says, “rapes, gun violence, kidnappings, lynching” that are now “hallmarks” of daily life. The issue has now been exacerbated with the mass escape of prisoners from the two largest prisons. This is likely the reason that Republicans in Florida are finally taking action to stop the influx not just of immigrants or refugees, but of hardened criminals and gangs from Haiti. And despite rejecting refugees in 2021, the White House seems aimed to welcome them now. The motivation seems to be related to why we have Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan gang, roaming the streets of NYC, or drug cartels and MS13 operating in the US, or why Iranians and Chinese are being let in within groups of women and children. It's the importation of cheap labor, voters, criminals, and gangs. In the midst of this chaos, Jimmy Chérizier, leader of the notorious “G9 and Family” gang, has reportedly taken over most of Port-au-Prince, demanding Henry resign, which is exactly what the people want. So why would the Haitian people be resisiting the gangs who supposedly want the same thing? Probably because Jimmy, also known as Barbecue for his supposed actions of lighting people on fire and possibly eating them, is instructing his fighters to destroy police stations and government facilities. And it is no coincidence that as soon as he “takes over” we learn that Henry agrees to resign so long as a transitional government is brokered by the US! And now that the story has some attention, it has been turned into the political theater of an immigration argument instead of the humanitarian crisis that it is - one that was created!-FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITECashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

Seguimos con la segunda parte de la audioserie titulada "Érase una vez el Este", en ese viaje y aventuras y desventuras de nuestros protagonistas a la isla caribeña en la que se encuentra Haití. Como ya sabéis esta serie o audioserie consiste en varios capítulos en los que se mezclan la realidad y la ficción y en los que hablamos de hechos históricos y de sucesos que están de plena actualidad. Y este proyecto de "Érase una vez el Este", es idea, como ya sabéis, de dos grandes amigos de LA BIBLIOTECA DE LA HISTORIA, como son Juan Lamas, malagueño, historiador, escritor y guionista, y Verónica, barcelonesa, actriz y cantante amateur y gran apasionada por la historia. Ellos son los artífices de esto y les agradezco su trabajo. *En este programa tenemos de nuevo el placer de contar con la voz de nuestros grandes amigos Julio Caronte y Doc Salvaje del podcast Relatos Salvajes. Os dejo con el noveno capítulo titulado "Más allá del jardín". En fechas tan señaladas como la Navidad, es mandato ético acordarse de los menos favorecidos. Haití es el país menos favorecido de toda América, ya lo sabéis. Más allá del que fuera el Jardín del Caribe que lucha por brotar, existen intereses maquiavélicos que no quieren que renazca. Intereses mundanos, vulgares, intereses económicos y políticos. ¿Pero qué hacer cuando la naturaleza también conspira para matarte? Al principio de la serie recordamos cómo los colonos de la Corona de Castilla supervivientes acabaron abandonando la parte occidental de la isla de Santo Domingo y si el territorio quedó libre para su explotación por los filibusteros, fue precisamente por la dureza del clima, con periódicos huracanes, enormes montañas, selvas intransitables e insalubres, y los temblores de tierra, los más crueles y destructivos terremotos que zarandeaban los edificios como si fueran de juguete. Haití se está muriendo. A finales de 2024 la misión policial y militar keniata fracasa en imponer el orden a la fuerza. Pero hay gente en Haití que no se rinde, que lucha por construir una vida. Para ellos, Feliz Navidad, y Feliz Navidad a todos. Este es un Podcast producido y dirigido por Gerión de Contestania, miembro del grupo "Divulgadores de la Historia".

A las 8 de la noche hora dominicana salió de Kenia el primer contingente de policías para integrar la fuerza pacificadora en Haití. El país vecino ha dado unos pasitos hacia su estabilidad luego que el premier Gary Conille ha logrado integrar su modesto gabinete y que una de sus primeras declaraciones se orientara a la necesidad de mejorar la administración al servicio de sus connacionales y a enfrentar la corrupción que lastra al estado más pobre del hemisferio. Aunque el discurso mayoritario desde el exterior hacia Haití y la preocupación de este lado de la frontera tiene que ver con la pacificación y la seguridad mínima en ese estado. Es evidente que lo poco que ha hecho Conille se siente. Cuando escuché de un cambio en el liderazgo de la policía no sabía que podía significar pero quizás haya que vincularlo con la muerte de tres oficiales la semana pasada que motivó una gran manifestación pública. Pero Jimmy Cherizier alías Barbecue que la semana pasada había anunciado que asolaria Delmas ayer y anteayer hablaba de negociar con las autoridades. Es evidente que algo cambió para bien. En Estados Unidos uno de los líderes de la banda 400 mawozo que es la que actúa mas cerca de RD fue condenado ayer a 35 años de prisión. Esos pasos pequeños advierten el inicio de un proceso de estabilidad que Haití necesita ardientemente y que conviene a RD que en los últimos tres años ha tenido que incrementar el gasto en defensa por la inestabilidad en el vecino país desde la muerte del presidente Jovenel Moise.  A nosotros nos queda esperar y a los haitianos que lo han perdido todo, tratar de recuperar su país.

How to stop the slide in the Americas' poorest nation? The last time this show put the spotlight on Haiti was nearly three months ago. The capital had been overrun by gangs who'd banded together against prime minister Ariel Henry who had just secured a deal to deploy a Kenyan-led international police force. With the presidency vacant since the 2021 assassination of Jovenel Moise, the unelected Henry has since handed over power to a collegial Transitional National Council but the gangs have extended their chokehold on Haiti and the deployment of police remains on hold.Coming up, our exclusive report into how the Caribbean state is coping and how to bring back law and order – sometimes block by block - to a capital that is estimated to be 80-percent controlled by armed groups and avoid the failures of past international missions there. Produced by Alessandro Xenos, Rebecca Gnignati and Juliette Brown.

Ariel Henry el primer ministro de Haití cuya tozudez respaldada por Estados Unidos impidió una salida negociada a la última crisis haitiana no renunció durante 30 meses de protestas continuas pero ahora está renunciado en Puerto Rico donde ni siquiera se sabe donde se aloja. La semana pasada le comenté a unos colegas que Henry iba a dejar su país como Atila, ni siquiera habría hierba.  No tuvo fuerzas ni poder para enfrentar a las bandas armadas que virtualmente tienen el poder de las armas en Haití pero tampoco el valor de servir como ente unificador para buscar una salida negociada a la crisis. Mientras Ariel Henry se empecina en ser primer ministro su país entra en disolución. El criterio de unidad en Haití ha sido difícil desde su propio nacimiento como Estado. Cinco años después de su independencia y tras el asesinato del fundador del estado Jean JAcques Dessalines Haití se divide en una República al sur y un reino en el norte, todo en 27 mil KM2. 200 años después los haitianos siguen atrapados en la división. En las últimas elecciones, esas que ganó Jovenel Moise, apenas votó el 18% de los votantes registrados, pero había 27 candidatos presidenciales de los cuales. Moise obtuvo 590 mil votos y hubo 13 candidatos que no llegaron a mil, pero participaron.. Una nota de Prensa Asociada, que compartimos en el canal de whatsapp, explica cómo, en medio de esa división, de la pobreza extrema y del proceso migratorio normal y hasta cierto punto esperanzador que ocurrió a propósito de la elección de jean Bertrand Aristide empezaron  a organizarse las hoy poderosas pandillas. Dice Prensa Asociada que solo René Preval las enfrentó y quizás por eso fue el único presidente que repitió dos periodos en el convulsionado Haití. Quizás tenga que ver con la relativa prosperidad de ese momento que desapareció con el terremoto. Es más que evidente que el pobrísimo liderazgo político haitiano creó el monstruo que lo consume y hoy ojalá lleguen a un acuerdo para enfrentarlo.

BEST OF: The United States government (i.e. intelligence agencies) have overthrown countless democratically elected leaders throughout the past century. From Iran (1953), Guatemala (1954), Congo (1960), and the Dominican Republic (1961), to South Vietnam (1963), Brazil (1964), Chile (1973). The left used to scream about the injustice, until they found their own country to meddle with in Ukraine. Meanwhile, in 2021, the popular president of Haiti, Jovenel Moise, was assassinated, and the wildly unpopular and unelected Ariel Henry was installed by the Biden administration with no vote. Promise of a democratic election was given but that has yet to happen. Ariel Henry has also been in contact, based on phone records, with the assassins, one of which has made a deal with U.S. prosecutors in March. After the assassination, Haiti erupted in civil unrest, and 15,000 people were deported or fled to the US-Mexico border where the White House, Homeland Security, and media said they would spread disease. Making the President look bad was unacceptable, and so these refugees were packed onto planes and flown back the deteriorating country. Haiti is now suffering from lack of hospitals, water, essential services, and basic law and order. Civil unrest has essentially created a civil war and the country now has more crime Somalia. Police are useless, mobs and gangs run the streets and capital, Port-au-Prince, and inflation has devastated the country further. Fuel, food, medicine, etc., are scarce. One may wonder why little help is offered and why there is virtually no news coverage? Perhaps for the following reasons: (1) In 2010, after a natural disaster, the people of Haiti resisted donations of seeds from biotech company Monsanto, one group citing them as a “very strong attack on small agriculture, on farmers, on biodiversity…” (2) With empty promises of democrat elections, and knowing their government was overthrown by the U.S., Daniel L. Foote, U.S. Special Envoy for Haiti and former Ambassador, said “even if elections did come, Henry is so unpopular that the vast majority of Haitians say they wouldn't vote or accept the results - not least because they believe the process would likely be rigged…” (3) Since violence is bad, Foote says “rapes, gun violence, kidnappings, lynching” are “hallmarks” of daily life - thus, the Haitian people have revolted against the violence with their own violence, executing gang members and criminals to restore order… (4) With refugees pouring into the United States, and cities like Boston are being overrun, the people from Haiti simply are requesting assistance and seeking to take the opportunities as Americans not afforded anymore in their home country. -FREE ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachingsTwitter: https://twitter.com/TST___RadioWEBSITE, BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE YEARLY: http://thesecretteachings.infoPaypal: rdgable@yahoo.comCashApp: $rdgableBuy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/tstradioSUBSCRIBE TO NETWORK: http://aftermath.mediaEMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.com

Estados Unidos y Ecuador preparan el texto de la resolución que deberá aprobar hoy el Consejo de Seguridad de las Naciones Unidas para la creación de una fuerza pacificadora en Haití. Sería la segunda operación de esta naturaleza en el país vecino donde la Minustah permaneció durante más de una década y tras su salida se impuso el caos hasta el sol de hoy. En Haití hay un gobierno que no gobierna porque no tiene capacidad para gobernar, sobre todo no tiene recursos ni económicos ni de fuerza para imponer norma alguna. En las últimas elecciones se inscribieron para participar 192 organizaciones de las que el organismo electoral reconoció 115. El sistema de gobierno híbrido porque es presidencial y parlamentario al mismo tiempo dificulta aún más las posibilidades de gobernar en tanto el congreso bicameral es quien elige al primer ministro que es quien forma gobierno. Tras la muerte del presidente Jovenel Moise hace dos años, el drama político economico de Haití se ha agravado. Tras la muerte de Moise, el muy popular de este lado Claude Joseph, se terció la ñoña pero duró poco y tuvo que entregar el poder a Ariel Henry que había sido designado por Moise dos días antes de su muerte. Las elecciones para seleccionar el congreso y modificar la constitución previstas para finales del 2021 no se pudieron organizar y Ariel Henry “nataguea” como gobernante de un país en el que no puede pagar los sueldos de los empleados públicos. Si al cóctel le faltara poco está la presencia de las bandas armadas que han sustituido al gobierno en el control territorial y que han provocado la muerte de miles. Solo en una zona de Puerto Príncipe han sido asesinadas 104 personas en un mes. En la capital haitiana hace meses que no se recoge la basura y no hay agua para suplir las condiciones mínimas de la población. El combustible duplica el precio de este lado de la frontera y en la mayoría de los casos llega irregularmente desde RD. Las imágenes de la capital que ofrece la prensa internacional se asemejan a películas del fin del mundo al estilo Mad Max. Hoy cerrarán las zonas francas porque su abasto llega desde RD y 50 mil haitianos, de la elite que tiene trabajo y puede comer, se quedarán desempleados. Mientras los promotores del canal hacen una colecta en tic toc para construir un dique, el gobierno dominicano dice que recuperar la toma de La Vígía tomará dos meses. El sentido común indica que una toma del lado haitiano tomará el mismo tiempo con una diferencia allá no hay dinero. El éxodo de ciudadanos haitianos residentes en el país que cruzan para su país se mantiene desde hace una semana. La agencia española Efe cita que en un solo día cruzaron por Dajabón cinco mil haitianos y que los otros puestos fronterizos unos mil o mil quinientos. Los que cruzan llevan sus ajuares y sobre todo la comida que pueden cruzar. Del otro lado, durante varios días, miles se han situado en la valla fronteriza en simple actitud de espera pues no pueden comprar comida. He tratado de describir el panorama para al final decir lo mismo. Como no podemos dividir la isla hay que buscar una salida a una crisis que no incluya una explosión social. No hay muro que contenga a la gente y menos si tiene hambre.

Next month marks the second anniversary of the assassination of the president of Haiti. Since the murder on July 7, 2021, of Jovenel Moise, the poorest nation In the Western Hemisphere has lurched further into chaos. The United Nations says there have been more than 600 murders in the capital in April alone. Gangs have carved up Port-au-Prince where the population lives under siege with murder, rape and kidnapping rife.

In May 2023, the UN reported that 600 people had been killed in Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince in the previous month alone – victims of gang violence and the near total collapse of law and order. In April the UN secretary-general, António Guterres, warned that insecurity in the country had “reached levels comparable to countries in armed conflict” and called for the deployment of an international force. In this powerful reported piece, freelance writer and former Haiti resident Pooja Bhatia talks to contacts on the ground, as well as historians and US State Department officials. She traces the origins of the current crisis through successive governments – from Papa and Baby Doc to Jovenel Moise - and through waves of US intervention. Between 2004 and 2017, UN peacekeeping forces brought cholera and 10,000 deaths to the country. Today cholera is back, with 40,000 suspected cases since October 2022. Against a backdrop of escalating violence and political corruption, many Haitians have come to see escape to the US (under Joe Biden's “humanitarian parole programme”) or foreign intervention as the only way forward. But will any nation step up?This article was originally published in the 12-18 May issue of the New Statesman magazine. You can read the text version here.

The United States government (i.e. intelligence agencies) have overthrown countless democratically elected leaders throughout the past century. From Iran (1953), Guatemala (1954), Congo (1960), and the Dominican Republic (1961), to South Vietnam (1963), Brazil (1964), Chile (1973). The left used to scream about the injustice, until they found their own country to meddle with in Ukraine. Meanwhile, in 2021, the popular president of Haiti, Jovenel Moise, was assassinated, and the wildly unpopular and unelected Ariel Henry was installed by the Biden administration with no vote. Promise of a democratic election was given but that has yet to happen. Ariel Henry has also been in contact, based on phone records, with the assassins, one of which has made a deal with U.S. prosecutors in March. After the assassination, Haiti erupted in civil unrest, and 15,000 people were deported or fled to the US-Mexico border where the White House, Homeland Security, and media said they would spread disease. Making the President look bad was unacceptable, and so these refugees were packed onto planes and flown back the deteriorating country. Haiti is now suffering from lack of hospitals, water, essential services, and basic law and order. Civil unrest has essentially created a civil war and the county now has more crime Somalia. Police are useless, mobs and gangs run the streets and capital, Port-au-Prince, and inflation has divested the country further. Fuel, food, medicine, etc., are scarce. One may wonder why little help is offered and why there is virtually no news coverage? Perhaps for the following reasons: (1) In 2010, after a natural disaster, the people of Haiti resisted donations of seeds from biotech company Monsanto, one group citing them as a “very strong attack on small agriculture, on farmers, on biodiversity…” (2) With empty promises of democrat elections, and knowing their government was overthrown by the U.S., Daniel L. Foote, U.S. Special Envoy for Haiti and former Ambassador, said “even if elections did come, Henry is so unpopular that the vast majority of Haitians say they wouldn't vote or accept the results - not least because they believe the process would be likely be rigged…” (3) Since violence is bad, Foote says “rapes, gun violence, kidnappings, lynching” are “hallmarks” of daily life - thus, the Haitian people have revolted against the violence with their own violence, executing gang members and criminals to restore order… (4) With refugees pouring into the United States, and cities like Boston are being overrun, the people from Haiti simply are requesting assistance and seeking to take the opportunities as Americans not afforded anymore in their home country.

The security situation in Haiti has spiralled out of control since the shock assassination of President Jovenel Moise in July 2021, with the country increasingly beset by violence. Today, unrest has reached such levels that the United Nations is being urged to intervene and there has been a total breakdown of governance. The country is increasingly at the mercy of criminal gangs and half of the population struggles to find food. FRANCE 24's team travelled to Port-au-Prince, the Haitian capital, before gangs took full control of the city. They met a writer, a street vendor and a food importer, as well as residents trying to flee abroad.

El presidente de la República tiene más información que todos nosotros y todo lo que dijera ayer respecto a las relaciones dominico-haitianas y la situación del vecino país durante su visita a Dajabón tiene que ver con la información que dispone. Supongo que midió y pesó cada palabra. Las necesarias para no agriar a los ultranacionalistas, de amplia presencia en las redes y medios, y las exactas para satisfacer a empresarios exportadores cuyo mercado es el vecino país y contratistas que necesitan de esa mano de obra en el país. De paso necesitó de la ecuanimidad para que sus decisiones locales no afectaran la campaña pro Haití que ha desarrollado el gobierno de Abinader en organismos internacionales desde el inicio de su gobierno. La receta no puede ser más difícil, tan difícil como es Haití un país donde no hay manera de que el liderazgo se ponga de acuerdo que no sea cuando dos se unen para enfrentar a un tercero. Haití ya estaba en crisis cuando fue asesinado el presidente Jovenel Moise que hizo una interpretación de la constitución para permanecer en el poder gobernando por decreto cuando cesó el parlamento en enero del 2020. Las elecciones legislativas y municipales que debían celebrarse en noviembre no se realizaron porque los legisladores no lograron acordar una fórmula para la organización de los nuevos comicios, incluso cuando Moïse contaba con la mayoría. El sistema político de Haití es híbrido, el presidente de la República es el jefe del Estado y debe proponer al congreso un primer ministro para que constituya un gobierno. Por eso tras la muerte de Moise el premier interino Claude Joseph intento quedarse con el poder a pesar de la designación que había hecho Moise de Ariel Henry días antes de morir. Técnicamente no había un congreso que validara las designaciones del presidente y la crisis fue de mal a peor con una incapacidad absoluta de organizar unas elecciones que formalizaran una institucionalidad mínima. A partir de ahí el gobierno es una formalidad, las bandas armadas que tenían ya mucho poder en el mandato de Moise se apropiaron del territorio por zonas y los poderosos haitianos se aliaron a esas bandas. Recuerden que los colombianos luego vinculados al magnicidio de Moise fueron contratados para su propia seguridad. Moise no confiaba en nadie y tenía razón. Una fuerza interventora en Haití tampoco garantiza nada más que una posible pacificación. La MINUSTAH permaneció en ese país 13 años y a su salida, la situación era igual o peor que cuando llegó. Solo un acuerdo interno y una decisión de financiar un estado como ya ha pasado en otras ocasiones en Taiwan o Israel podrían alentar un estado fallido que no tiene otra puerta de salvación que no sea la República Dominicana.

La colère ne retombe pas, les manifestations pour réclamer le départ du Premier ministre Ariel Henry se poursuivent dans la capitale Port-au-Prince et en province. Le chef de gouvernement peut-il se maintenir à son poste ? Analyse de notre invité. Depuis plus d'un mois et demi, la rue appelle Ariel Henry à quitter son poste de Premier ministre qu'il occupe depuis juillet 2021. Des manifestations qui ont redoublé depuis une quinzaine de jours, et l'annonce par les autorités de la hausse des prix des carburants. « Une bêtise, à la veille de la rentrée des classes, preuve qu'Ariel Henry n'est pas l'homme du moment », selon notre invité, l'Haïtien Jean-Marie Théodat, maître de conférences en Géographie à l'Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. Selon lui, « nous assistons aujourd'hui à une nouvelle forme de mouvements sociaux : ce sont des gens de tous les jours qui prennent le béton pour aller dire au gouvernement que cette mesure est excessive ». Mais, Jean-Marie Théodat s'interroge : « si la majorité silencieuse se met en mouvement, comment vont réagir les gangs qui avaient été utilisés en 2018 pour écraser la révolte qui appelait déjà à la démission de Jovenel Moise ».     Présidentielle au Brésil, J-2 : le scrutin vu de Manaus Dimanche (2 octobre 2022), les électeurs brésiliens éliront un nouveau président.

Two countries in Latin America have had elections where after decades of US-influenced, multinational corporation dominant governments have lost to insurgent leftist candidates, Xiomara Castro in Honduras, and Gustavo Petro in Colombia. One other country in the Caribbean, Haiti, has faced the same sort of right-wing neoliberal interventionist governments, a recent example ending up with an assassination of President Jovenel Moise in 2021. Right now massive protests have gotten to the point of anarchy over fuel hikes and US-UN intervention on behalf of corporations and their wealthy Haitian overlords. How did we get here and where do we go from here? Today we feature excerpts from the UCSB radio program No Alibis Third World News Review [https://spinitron.com/KCSB/show/169197/No-Alibis] with host Elizabeth Robinson, Jack Eidt, EcoJustice Radio Executive Producer, and commentators Gerard Pigeon, Katia McClain, and Hector Javkin. Jack Eidt discusses new government transitions in Honduras and Colombia. Professor Gerard Pigeon covers the history of Haiti, and why we have seen this international-interventionist mess before. Unless many nations work together to support a Haitian-led solution, where the business and corporate interests and their US and UN military power step back, nothing will improve there. We also included a commentary by Prof. Katia McClain, calling for a peaceful solution to the war in Ukraine. Jack Eidt is an urban planner, environmental journalist, and fiction writer. In addition to co-founding SoCal 350, he publishes the website WilderUtopia [https://www.wilderutopia.com/]. He has written about Latin American issues for decades. Gerard Pigeon is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Black Studies at UCSB [https://www.blackstudies.ucsb.edu/people/gerard-pigeon], and specializes in Francophone African and Caribbean literature, language, and cultural traditions. He gives us a comprehensive rundown on Haiti's history since they became an independent republic, the first modern state in the Americas governed by people of African descent. And he covers what is happening today since the assassination of their president and ongoing political instability. He has published many books including Favelas (Les Editions St. Germain), Le Choix, Edition St. Germain; and Frontiere (Oswald, Paris, 1976).

Haiti, synonymous with generational poverty, misrule, and human misery, is reeling from a series of calamities as grave as any the island nation of 11 million people has suffered through. In July gunmen assassinated president Jovenel Moise, whom the opposition had accused of attempting to illegally prolong his term. The political crisis remains unresolved. In August a powerful earthquake killed more than 2,000 people and injured 12,000, recalling the devastating 2010 quake and the ensuing failure of donor relief to rebuild the country. And as the year draws to the close, Port-au-Prince is considered the kidnapping capital of the world as armed gangs operate with impunity. The weak central government is unable to control the gangs in a security vacuum caused by the departure of a U.N. lead peace-keeping force in 2019. In this episode of History As It Happens, historian Alan McPherson, an expert in U.S. foreign relations with Latin America and the Caribbean, discusses the roots of Haiti's struggles, which date to its founding as the first free Black republic in 1804.

As the United States makes its exit from the "Forever War" in Afghanistan, we look at the problems the country may face, and why history shows that choosing to leave is both the "least worst" and the only right choice.  Protest erupted over the weekend in Cuba on a scale that hasn't been seen in the country in nearly three decades, as people lined the streets in many of the country's major cities airing grievances about the economy and the pandemic. Meanwhile, the strange circumstances surrounding the assassination of the Haitian president continue to unfold as the story grows more complex by the day. Then, shifting our attention over to the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, we examine the current situation, the Afghani government's responses, and the encroachment of the Taliban throughout the country. Although there are many who see President Biden's choice to withdraw at the current time problematic, history shows why past attempts at "Nation Building" in the country have been unsuccessful, and that there is no "right time" to exit. The only sensible option is to leave... although doing so will present its own problems. We look at all of this, and more on this week's installment of Middle Theory.  Coronavirus Charities: If you are able, please consider supporting the following charities that are offering relief for those affected by the coronavirus pandemic. Visit our Coronavirus Charities Page to learn more.

Today on Sojourner Truth, our weekly roundtable. This week, we focus on the latest news in Haiti and Afghanistan. Our panelists are Laura Carlsen, Jackie Goldberg, Dr. Gerald Horne, and David Comissiong, Barbados's Ambassador to the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). The ongoing crisis in Haiti following the assassination of U.S.-backed President Jovenel Moise. We speak with David Comissiong, Barbados's Ambassador to the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). Heads of government of CARICOM have issued a statement in the wake of the assassination of Moise. The heads of government strongly condemned the act as abhorrent and reprehensible, pointing out that this comes at a time of deep turmoil and institutional weakness in the country. Moise, a U.S.-backed former banana exporter from the private sector, had been accused of rampant corruption and human rights abuses. His assassination takes place within the context of longstanding U.S. support for right-wing dictators friendly to Washington and Wall Street. It also forms part of the long history of U.S. destabilization in Haiti and in Latin America and the Caribbean. On Wednesday, April 14, U.S. President Joe Biden announced that he plans to fully withdraw troops from Afghanistan by Sept. 11, ending 20 years of U.S. military occupation. The occupation has taken the lives of at least 2,300 U.S. troops and more than 100,000 Afghanis, according to most estimates. Thousands more have been injured, physically and mentally, with physical disabilities and post-traumatic stress disorders. On Thursday, July 8, President Joe Biden delivered a strong defense of his decision to end the war in Afghanistan, insisting no amount of sustained U.S. presence there could resolve the country's own systemic problems.
