Description

Are Canada, France and US governments "punishing" Haiti? Since the 2004 Haitian coup d'état and foreign military intervention that took Aristide from power, what can we learn from the long history of colonial influence in the world's first black-led republic and first independent Caribbean state? With the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse this July 2021 and the calls for political stability, is Haiti still “under control” by foreign powers? If so, why?
An interview with Elaine Brière, Canadian photojournalist, anti-colonial activist and film director of Haiti Betrayed. Brière’s first documentary and book was on East Timor’s pre-invasion way of life.
Haiti Betrayed will be screened on September 11th at the International Day of Peace Virtual Film Festival by World Beyond War, get your tickets here.
