Hear the first detailed first-person account of how President
Aristide was kidnapped by American soldiers and flown 6000 miles,
against his will, to the isolated Central African Republic...and why
Haiti's history and continuing struggle for freedom and independence
is important to all of us.
Marcus Book Stores present
Randall Robinson in Oakland
Thursday, Sept. 20 - 6:30 p.m. - only Bay Area appearance!
Allen Temple Baptist Church, 8501 Internat'l Blvd
Author of the explosive new book An Unbroken Agony: Haiti, From
Revolution to the Kidnapping of a President
In An Unbroken Agony, Robinson majestically chronicles the convulsive
saga of Haiti -- from Columbus' arrival in 1492 ... to the
fearlessness of the slave revolutionaries who defeated the armies of
Napoleon Bonaparte in 1804, ending slavery and wresting from France
the most valuable colony of any European power ... to the US-led
operation removing from power Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Haiti's first
democratically-elected president and his entire government in 2004.
Randall Robinson, a celebrated civil rights and anti-apartheid
activist, author of the best seller The Debt, and founder of
TransAfrica Forum, lives on the island of St. Kitts in the Caribbean.
This rare Bay Area appearance by Randall Robinson is sponsored by
Marcus Book Stores and co-sponsored by Allen Temple Baptist Church
