People Are Dead After 4.9 Magnitude Earthquake in Haiti
The Last Thing Haiti Needs Is Another Manufactured Earthquake and Flood -PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI
An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.9 struck southern Haiti early Tuesday, killing at least three people and injuring several others, authorities said. The quake struck before dawn Tuesday near Jeremie at a depth of six miles, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. One resident said things fell around his house and that he and other colleagues are contemplating sleeping outdoors if there are strong aftershocks. Conspiracy theorists say earthquakes and floods are being manufactured to take over Haiti and the Mole St. Nicolas.

in the past....
On November 11, 1915, Haitian President Sudre Dartiguenave was forced to sign a treaty with ratification by the Haitian Senate The document legitimized the US occupation and put Haitian finances and government under the control of the US for the next 20 years. The controversial amendment also aimed to disband the Haitian army and permit foreign land ownership that had been outlawed since the Haitian Revolution. However, the reluctant lawmakers rejected that notion and rather began drafting a new anti-American constitution, but under U.S pressure, that bill was kept undecided by President Dartiguenave till 1929.
In 1929, a series of strikes and uprisings against the U.S initiated the withdrawal of U.S Marines from Haiti. In 1934, in concert with the "Good Neighbor Policy" introduced by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, U.S Marine was officially withdrawn from Haiti except for retaining a few for maintaining economic connections. The status quo of personality-driven politics dominated by the same faces that have ruled for decades is untenable. Future elections will only be successful if youth are at the forefront of politics and governance, including constitutional and electoral reform processes, civic and voter awareness efforts, political party campaigns, and peacebuilding and security initiatives. The U.S. should bolster citizen security initiatives and prioritize efforts that are locally led and centered around youth by addressing the key factors that drive susceptibility to recruitment.
Today there are disagreements over the role of the Clintons and the Clinton Foundation in Haiti, but it is certain that billions of dollars were raised for Haiti. The people of Haiti, the first Black Republic have not seen any progressive developments, the fruits of the raised donations. The Haitian people have suffered and continue to suffer. Everyone has failed Haiti.

Industrial Education for Black Americans
One of the most fundamental and far-reaching deeds that has been accomplished during the last quarter of a century has been that by which the Negro has been helped to find himself and to learn the secrets of civilization–to learn that there are a few simple, cardinal principles upon which a race must start its upward course, unless it would fail, and its last estate be worse than its first.

On the plantation in Virginia, and even later, Douglass tells how meals were given to the children, very much as dumb animals get theirs. It was a piece of bread here and a scrap of meat there. It was a cup of milk at one time and some potatoes at another.

Du Bois used the term "The Talented Tenth" to describe the likelihood of one in ten black men becoming leaders of their race in the world, through methods of continuing their education, writing books, or becoming directly involved in social change.
