If we as Haitians unite in an effort to gain back what we have lost and take care of what God has given us as a people, and do it now, we can get back where we belong. But we must not sell out no more.

I am not sure how well inform you guys are about Haiti's foreign policy, but it will be good to check what our Head of State have been doing when it come to trade off the Nation interest with other Nations to protect their own interest. We use to benefit the same right the Cubans have, but former president Jean-Claude Duvalier started the repatriation process and the evil former president Jean Bertrand Aristide finished it up and broke so many other treaties just because he wanted to return so he can finish to bury the country deeper into poverty and immorality. All I am saying, as Haitian before bad mouth other country; let keep our government in check first to make sure they do right by our fellow Haitian brothers and sisters.

Reply to Realest zoe | e-mail this | permalink Tamika's comment about "The Haitian Immigration Crisis" Are you kidding me?! First and Foremost, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Tamika and guess what. I AM A PROUD TEENAGE HAITIAN YOUNG WOMAN!!!!!!! I find it quiet funny that America would love to keep in the cubans but not us Haitians. Lets think of something right quick. ... If Haitians were not in America you really think that there would be so many doctors, so many politicians, so many new creative ideads and advancements, so many new churches? Nope I didnt think so. Yet Cuba is a communist Country and I could have sworn that the grand almighty United States was not allowing cubans in because of that. Yeah no plane nor boat was allowed to enter nor leave Cuba to come to America. So whats with the wet feet dry feet policy. Thats rubish. America is suppose to be the land of the free. The land of equality ad tolernace. If they deport all the Haitians or kick us all out then you know thats foul. So many stereotypes for Haitians and its not fair to us. If Bush wasnt such a damn fool he'd probably send down money and foos to Haiti not troops with guns. Were a strong Nation and the government needs to realize that we Haitians will not back down. L'Union Fait La Force. Ayiti se li m renmen,Mwen pap janm ka lagel. Those are lyrics from Frero by Sweet Mickey. How about they get the translation of the words of that song and figure it out. Haiti wants to be improved. We have to be one of the most religious nations in the world because we pray all the time for everything. Regardless of anything, Haitians make up most of the population. Espically in New ork. Kick out the Haitians and trust me this countr will be so boring that no one will be able to live here. Haitians are people too. Immigrants so what but we are people none the less. We contribute just as much if not more to this country then the atual in habitants of this land. Reply to Tamika | e-mail this | permalink Cathy M.'s comment about "The Haitian Immigration Crisis" The free country America It is unfortunate that Haitian people are not given the opportunity to live in the land of the free as the Cubans. What's even more of a disgrace is that all other black nationalities and including some Haitian people do not support each other. Instead of fighting for equality alongside with the Haitian people, many of the black communities ridicule and fight against us. If we all cooperate and stand tall together, we as a black community will not fall, fail, of be forgotten. The truth of the matter is despite our culture whether black american, jamaican, african, etc.. the white people look at us all as one, either nigger, negro, black.
