Chicago Filmmakers 5243 N Clark 7pm. It may surprise many people to learn that the histories of the United States and Haiti are parallel. Each gained liberation from their Imperialist Master around the same time; the American Colonies in 1789 from the British, the Haitians in 1804 from the French. But, the Haitians are Black, and there the parallel ends. This video documents the current and ongoing struggle by the Haitian poor against the US sponsored United Nations military occupation.
