No country in the Western hemisphere has been battered more than Haiti in the last 500 years--the nearly complete annihilation of its native population in about 2 decades,  a brutal slave regime, foreign military interventions over hundreds of years, dictatorship supported by western powers, blockades of aid and more recently devastating hurricanes--and now the earthquake.  Haitians are a strong and resilient people--they were the first country in the world to establish an independent republic by former slaves.  Unfortuantely, the United States has often been on the side of Haitian dictators and not the poor majority.  Let's help build a new Haiti.  Please give to Partners In Health.  Learn more about relief for Haiti.
