Come Join Haiti Action Committee in solidarity with the people of Haiti,
as we mark the 6th anniversary of the February 29, 2004 coup that
continues to try to destory Haiti's grassroots movement.<br><br>
In the aftermath of the devastating earthquake, Haitians are now facing a
human-made disaster. Instead of delivering aid to the people in peace,
the US military stepped up the occupation it began in 2004. Water, food
and medical supplies continue to be withheld from thousands of people.
Countless Haitians are dying preventable deaths.<br>
This genocidal situation continues the long history of exploitation of
Haiti's majority population by the United States. They are being excluded
from discussions about the long term rebuilding of their country just as
Fanmi Lavalas - the political party of the majority - is banned from
participating in elections and former Haitian President Aristide remains
banned from the country. The politics of the earthquake? The coup
continues.<br>
