</font><font face="arial" size=2>This is a critical moment for Haiti.
Popular resistance to the coup regime remains strong, but repression is
intensifying. Backed by the United States, the United Nations, France and
Canada, the coup regime continues its assault on the poor majority,
targeting especially leaders and supporters of the Lavalas grassroots
democracy movement. <br><br>
September 30<sup>th</sup> is the anniversary of the US-orchestrated coup
that overthrew President Aristide in 1991. Haiti’s grassroots
popular movement will mobilize in Port-au-Prince and other areas,
demanding the return of their elected government and President Aristide,
an end to U.S. and UN-supported massacres, and the release of over a
thousand political prisoners. They will be denouncing the sham
election—held under military occupation -- now being planned by the coup
leaders to legitimize their rule. <br><br>
This year, they will not be alone. In cities all over the world, from
Santiago, Chile and Montreal, Canada to Dublin, Ireland and the Bay Area,
people are standing up against the trampling of Haiti’s sovereignty. Our
solidarity can play an important role in this struggle of Haiti’s poor
majority. Now is the time to take a stand. We demand:<br><br>
