POUKI SA SE AYISYEN
We are the first black nation in the world
The first small Europe-Africa
Why is there such a burden on our back?
Why are my brothers dying by water?
Why are we mistreated?
Why does today bring us AIDS?
Why can't we live our lives?
Our blood is shed
To be given freedom
Why does it seem there is no respect for Haiti?
Why will we be given this old burden?
— Timothee Peterson & Lereste (11yrs old, Port Salut Haiti)
