Action Alert: Haiti-based coalition asks for your help A broad coalition of Haitian elected officials, community organizations and human rights groups, including Fondayson Trant Septanm (September 30th Foundation) have announced plans for a series of activities in Haiti calling for the safe return of Lovinsky Pierre-Antoine. At a press conference in Port-au-Prince on Monday, August 27th, the coalition, Gwoup Inisyativ Pou Sove Lavi Pierre-Antoine (Group Initiative to Save the Life of Pierre-Antoine), announced that it would stage vigils and peaceful marches this Wednesday and Friday, August 29 and 31. Lovinsky Pierre-Antoine is a Haitian grassroots leader, member of the Lavalas Party, and the head of Fondayson Trant Septanm, a Haitian human rights organization that advocates for victims of the 1991 and 2004 coup d'etats against the democratically-elected governments of Jean-Bertrand Aristide. He has not been seen since the evening of Sunday, August 12, 2007 after meeting with a U.S. human rights delegation then in Haiti. He is presumed kidnapped. |

Jump To Comment: 1Port-au-prince is covered with tags right now that say "Viv Retou Titid". That is creol for "Long live the return of Aristide." Aristide refused to privatize but rather invested in schools, higher wages for the poor, medicine and reparations, a revolutionary project for a government in Haiti. Now under Preval the government is planning to privatize most the state.
Too bad most the internet and media savy folks in the US don't understand why Lavalas is loved in the Haitian slum. They'll just never get it.
