Haiti Action Committee will host a memorial service for Father Gerard
Jean-Juste at St Joseph the Worker Church in Berkeley on Saturday,
June 27th at 7PM. Revolutionary Haitian priest Father Jean-Juste died
on May 27th at the age of 62. In jail and out, he preached liberation
of the poor, release of prisoners, human rights for all, and a fair
distribution of wealth.
He constantly challenged both the powers of Haiti and the US to stop
killing, starving and imprisoning the poor. He slept on the floor of
his church, St. Claire, which provided meals to thousands of starving
children and adults every week. Father Gerry will be missed but not
forgotten by the Haitian people, and by all who embrace true
democracy and justice throughout the world.
