style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue"">Stand
in solidarity with the overwhelming majority of
Haitians, whose continued
resistance to an illegitimate, US-backed regime has
given rise to years of
sustained protest against stolen elections,
government corruption, poverty,
land grabs, rising prices, and 15 years of UN/US
military occupation. These are
the conditions that drive people to leave Haiti and
immigrate elsewhere seeking
a means to survive. $4.2 BILLION has been stolen
from government revenues. The
international media has either ignored this struggle
or reported in a way that
blames the demonstrators for “violence.” <span></span></span>

0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:"""><span
style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue"">As
resistance to this regime intensifies, so does
repression. Police and
paramilitary forces have responded with bullets,
teargas, imprisonment and
increasingly, massacres, aimed at wiping out Haiti’s
grassroots <i>Lavalas</i>
movement. Over several nights in November, 2018
state-sponsored armed
forces tortured, and/or murdered several hundred
people, raped women in front of their families and
burned homes in Lasalin, a neighborhood of
Port-au-Prince with a history of
resistance. <span></span></span></p>

U.S. arms, funds and
trains Haiti's military and police, and only with
U.S. support can this corrupt
regime remain in power. The people of Haiti deserve
to live without
the daily threat of state-directed violence. It is
time for the U.S. to be held
accountable for its continued support of the
repressive regime now in power in
Haiti.<span></span></span></p>
