Nearly 200 Haitians in Port-au-Prince were killed over the weekend on the orders of a powerful gang leader who reportedly targeted elderly practitioners of voodoo because he blamed them for sickening his son. The massacre is the latest chapter in Haiti’s ongoing political crisis, with gangs now controlling much of the capital despite a Kenyan-led security mission to stabilize the country and support the U.S.-backed Transitional Presidential Council.
And this is really the predictable result of dismantling democracy. And there were massacres before. You’ve covered the massacre, like the 2018 massacre in La Saline. And right after that, Maxine Waters went down, and she said, “Unless this impunity is stopped, you’re going to have more massacres.” And we are having more massacres, and we will continue to have massacres until Haiti is allowed to establish a democratic government.
What needs to happen is the rest of us need to step up. And we need to step up by going into the streets, by protesting. We need to step up. And IJDH will do this, as we did the last Trump administration. We’ll go to court. People need to work within the political system, call their members of Congress. We need to resist on all fronts.
