In the aftermath of the January 12, 2010 earthquake in Haiti, SLC faculty, staff and students have struggled for a way to make sense of the tragedy and respond to the ongoing humanitarian crisis. While images of profound grief and suffering have been prominent in the news, an analysis of Haiti's history, the vibrancy of its culture and the importance of its political struggles have not been discussed as much. Please join us for a Teach-In on Haiti with four SLC faculty members who will provide historical, political, economic and social analysis on the current situation.

Speakers: Alwin A.D. Jones (Literature), Matilde Zimmermann (History) , Gina Philogene (Psychology) and Jamee Moudud (Economics).

Moderated by: Mary Dillard (History)

Original event date: Monday, February 1, 2010 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm
Event location: Reisinger Auditorium

In this episode, we are talking about current events.

Police brutality, BLM as a movement vs as an organization, and whether Activism has long term impact in America.

We bring the conversation back to Haiti with our discussion on how we've seen colorism just dominate the socio-economic landscape in Haiti and what the possible solutions be in this case.

Activist Kemi Seba reacts to his expulsion from Ivory Coast earlier this week.

At a press conference, the pan-Africanist criticized Ivorian authorities, and his home country, Benin, accusing them of violating his fundamental rights.

Despite the aversion of several governments in West Africa, Kemi Seba says he is determined to continue his fight against the CFA franc, a currency common to 14 African countries and guaranteed by France.

"There is a way forward and that is why we are fighting …

In the 1960s and 70s, Quebec saw an influx of Haitian immigrants fleeing Francois Duvalier’s dictatorship. By 1971, thousands of Haitians had immigrated to Quebec, the only other majority French-speaking society in North America. Arriving mostly in Montreal, Haitians encountered the Quiet Revolution, the perfect setting to establish their exiled community and combat Duvalier’s regime from abroad. Their battle for liberation infused with Quebec’s own.

But who are these Haitian immigrants, and what do we really know about their history? We speak with musician Jenny Salgado (a.k.a. J Kyll) and educator and historian Alain Saint-Victor to learn more about the relationship between Haiti and Quebec and the influences of the Haitian community in “la belle province.”

Crooked believes that we need a better conversation about politics, culture, and the world around us—one that doesn’t just focus on what’s broken, but what we can do to fix it. At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America—a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.

#CantJustPreach

Lyrics:
Every day I wake and,
Everything is broken,
Turning off my phone just to get out of bed.
Get home every evening,
And history’s repeating,
Turning off my phone cuz its hurting my chest.

And heaven knows I’m not helpless,
But what can I do?
I can’t see the use in me crying
If I’m not even trying to make the change I wanna see

I can’t sit and hope, I
Can’t just sit and pray, that
I can find a love, when
All I see is pain

Falling to my knees
Though I do believe
Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh)
I can’t just preach, baby, preach

All I hear is voices,
Everybody’s talking,
Nothing real is happening, cause nothing is new.
Now when all is tragic,
And I just feel sedated,
Why do I feel numb, Is that all I can do?

And heaven knows I’m not helpless, yeah
But I’m only human.
Can’t see the use in me crying,
If I’m not even trying to make the change I want to see.

I can’t sit and hope, I
Can’t just sit and pray, that
I can find a love, when
All I see is pain

Falling to my knees
Though I do believe
Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh)
I can’t just preach, baby, preach

And heaven knows I’m not helpless,
What can I do?
Can’t see the use in me crying
If I’m not even trying to make the change I wanna see

I can’t sit and hope, I
Can’t just sit and pray, that
I can find a love, when
All I see is pain

Falling to my knees
Though I do believe
Oh, I can’t just preach baby preach (woah oh oh oh oh ohhhh)
I can’t just preach, baby, preach

Falling to my knees
And though I do believe
I can’t just preach, baby, preach.

This interview is co-presented with WNYC’s Greene Space and hosted by journalist Alison Stewart (All of It).

An activist group called "Witness at the Border" has been tracking deportation flights departing from Brownsville, Texas. NBC News NOW followed the group one morning before sunrise to bring you their story.

What is the Haiti Core Group?
The Canadian government is part of a colonial alliance in Haiti.
The Core Group (US, Canada, France, Brazil, Spain, Germany, EU, UN, OAS representatives) has heavily shaped Haitian affairs and has overseen the descent of political life in Haiti.
Formally established by the UN Security Council after US, French and Canadian troops overthrew Haiti’s elected government in 2004, the Core Group unofficially traces its roots to the 2003 “Ottawa Initiative on Haiti”. At that meeting US, French, OAS and Canadian officials discussed overthrowing Haiti’s President and putting the country under UN trusteeship.
