Activities: There will be teach-ins, rallies and lectures before and on May 18 about Haiti, the accomplishments of Lavalas; vigils, pickets outside embassies, and U.N. buildings; distribution of text and video testimony from victims and resisters of the coup; letter campaigns, wearing & flying of the blue and red colors of Haiti... The sacrilege of last year’s bicentennial coup shall be remembered as Africans worldwide commit to fax, call in or deliver to French embassies & consulatesthe petition from the People of Haiti demanding that France pays back the $22Billion it extorted from Haiti after her people had broken the chains of racial slavery to win their independence.
