Cuban Adjustment Act

Juli Noel Says...

Well I have to first of all agree with my people but at the same I have to let you know one of the reasons why "not the Haitians".

Law number 89, known as the Cuban Adjustment act, was adopted by the US congress on the 2nd of November of 1966, it's main provisions was to change the legal status of the Cuban immigrants; to treat them as political refugees and to grant them political asylum; and as such provide them immediately with privileges that no other group enjoys, such as, automatic permanent residence status - all without review and without the usual waiting time. This privileged law affords the Cuban illegal immigrant the opportunity, to work legally, to govt. welfare, to unemployment benefits, and to free medical care, things that the average immigrant by no means is entitled to. and they also have the Cuban Liberty and Democratic Solidarity, Act of 1996. Of course they will be favored because they have what we don't have...

a "Voice"!

They have someone talking for them through them. In detail Hatians need to get a voice too in order to be heard.

If we don't do anything then how the heck do we expect things to happen for us. Haitians are lazy, they think that someday, someone will just feel sorry for them and have pitty...

well newsflash, no one is gonna feel sorry for you ever!

You complain all the time but never take action.

You have the energy, w'ap joure, pale anpil tout la sent jounen...

you can use that voice and energy and do something with it. And if no one listen, well then start yelling until someone hears you. Y'all are quitters!

And whatever happened to l'Union fait la Force?

Se nan sak pa bon seulman ou we Ayisyen gen l'union.

Depui on moun di kraze, ou we yon million moun ki prezan.

Depui yo di bati, apenn se 2, 3 kek grenn moun ap paret.

Men problem nou tande Ayisyen.

So suspan chita ap pale lot moun mal et commanse aji. Epui d'ailleurs nou pa konnen plus n'ap pale zot mal, plus afe'l ap mache?!

P.S. I know I wrote a book but I had to get it off my chest!
